Youth Baseball and Softball
The London Mets Youth brigade closed their season on October 28th with the final session of Fall ball. We will start playing regularly again in January when we commence our winter training. But we are still busy planning and meeting off-season though so feel free to get in touch.
​
We also completed two year-end events: the autumn field day and our annual AGM where we confirmed new board members Rebecca ("Becs") Dale Williams and recent joiner Georgie Eristavi ("engineer and field guru").
​​
Welcome to the London Mets Youth Baseball program. We are a diverse, local club based at Finsbury Park in London with multi-lingual coaches. We offer the opportunity for boys and girls to learn baseball in a fun, supportive, team environment. ​
​
We focus on the community around us and welcome both experienced players and beginners. At the same time, we have highly experienced coaching (c.40 over the year) and are able to challenge more experienced players as well. For 2024, we are looking to expand our T-ball program to include the T-Rex training plan for players aged 4-6 and offer mid-week youth programs to surrounding primary schools.
​​​
We have launched our 2024 Youth Winter Training: the link is above. It will take place again at the Bridge Secondary school in Tufnell Park again on the following dates: January 13th, 20th, February 3rd, 17th, and March 2nd and the 16th. In the meantime, we've begun running a few ad hoc sessions at the new 108 indoor baseball facility. Please get in touch if you're interested. We hope to begin our regular season on March 23rd if conditions allow. Please note that our youth calendar below is always up to date. Looking way way out, the next MLB London Series appears to be set for June 8th and 9th, 2024. Our Mets club will be attending.
