Spokane Public Schools Little Sluggers
Presented By
Registration OPENING SOON!
Spokane Public Schools, in partnership with Spokane Indians Youth Baseball & Softball, is excited to bring back the Little Sluggers Program—an energetic and fun-filled co-ed T-Ball league returning in Fall 2026!
Little Sluggers is designed to introduce the fundamentals of baseball to our youngest student-athletes in Spokane Public Schools. This six-week program is open to incoming Pre-K through 2nd grade students and focuses on teamwork, skill-building, and fun with friends.
The Little Sluggers season will consist of 8 practices and 4 one-hour games at local SPS high schools on Friday evenings. Teams will be built with an emphasis on grouping players with classmates from their elementary school.
Every player will receive a team shirt and hat. SIYBS will provide shared batting helmets, bats, tees, and game balls- just bring a glove and a love for the game!
If your child does not attend an SPS school, there is still a place for your athlete in our program! While priority of a spot on a team will go to SPS enrolled students, the ultimate goal is to build community around the Spokane area! Once registration closes, non- SPS registered participants will be placed to the best of our abilities on the closest SPS school with an open spot.

If you’re looking for a fun and welcoming way to introduce your future All-Star to baseball, Little Sluggers is the perfect place to start!
