Kid2Pro Sports Frequently Asked Questions's

WHAT IS KID2PRO SPORTS?    

K2P is an organization that makes fantasy become reality for boys and girls by playing baseball and softball of all skill levels at professional stadiums with all the trimmings of a "Pro" game. Our venues consist of various Professional Minor League parks in New York and New Jersey. Plans include expansion to Pennsylvania and Delaware.  K2P is staffed by professional Event Coordinators, Teachers, Minor League Umpires, Coaches, First Responders, and Interns.

WHAT AGE & TALENT LEVEL IS KID2PRO SPORTS GEARED TOWARDS? 

Our experiences are for boys and girls ages 8u through 18 years old of all skill levels. Over the years, 100's of Town, Rec., Travel, and School Teams have participated in a Kid2Pro Sports event.  
This is a single game “Experience”, not a “Tournament setting”.   "A-Plus" teams are always welcome and must bring their opponent to ensure competitive balance.

Baseball and softball infield sizes are modified according to sport, age group, and skill level.  Fields range from 60/90 (Pro Size) to 50/70 to 46/60 to softball sizes accordingly.
