• Youth Baseball and Softball Toolkit -- The Miami Marlins Youth Baseball and Softball Toolkit is a great resource for players, coaches and parents, and features a welcome letter from Marlins player Brian Anderson.

• Fun At Bat -- Fun At Bat is an entry-level bat and ball program for kids, launched by USA Baseball, with an emphasis on character development, functional movement, active play, and fun. The program is locally supported by Florida Blue and the Miami Marlins Foundation.

One of the exciting activities that will be added this week to Billy’s Activity Zone is Major League Baseball’s Summer Slugger program. The Summer Slugger program was developed to combat summer learning loss during summer vacation, but is more important now during this unprecedented time with school closures. The course, designed for 4th and 5th graders, focuses on math and literacy skills, with the concepts taught through a baseball-themed experience.
