Edgefield Baseball is part of the Edgefield County Recreation League, which includes Johnston and Bettis Academy.This organization serves children between the ages of 4 and 16. The Edgefield Baseball Board of Directors is elected each year by the association's membership. The Board's goal is to provide the best recreational baseball program at the lowest possible cost to the membership. Edgefield Baseball has strict player participation rules designed to stress the spirit of a full player participation, recreational youth program. This program is designed to promote the development of strong character, a right attitude, a sense of responsibility, and citizenship in youngsters, using the game of baseball as a vehicle. This program achieves this goal through fair play, good sportsmanship, and congenial fellowship, with adult leaders providing the example while attempting to limit injury caused by overexertion.
