Every Tuesday from 4:30 PM to 5:30 PM, our facility transforms into a world of imagination and athletic discovery. Here is why families from Smithtown to Sayville are making R3 their weekly home for youth sports.
The Magic of “Story-Based” Coaching
At ages 3 to 6, “drills” can feel like chores. That’s why we don’t just teach baseball; we tell stories. Our unique curriculum uses engaging interactive stories to hook your child’s attention. Whether they are “running away from dinosaurs” (base running) or “launching rockets into space” (hitting), they are learning fundamental mechanics without even realizing it.
The Benefits of a Weekly Active Routine
Starting sports early isn’t about the Major Leagues—it’s about major milestones. Regular participation in our 60-minute classes helps children develop:
-
Coordination & Motor Skills: Improving hand-eye coordination and balance through play.
-
Social Confidence: Learning to follow directions, take turns, and cheer for teammates.
-
Focus: Interactive storytelling helps young minds practice listening and staying on task.
What Makes R3 Little Sluggers Different?
Most programs offer a 4-week “clinic” that ends just as your child starts to get comfortable. Our Unlimited Membership model is designed for consistency.
-
The Story: Each class begins with a lesson wrapped in a fun narrative.
-
The Drill: We reinforce that lesson with baseball-specific movements.
-
The Game: We always finish with an age-appropriate game to end the hour on a high note!
