Tel Aviv Sharks

Baseball in Tel Aviv.

Tel Aviv Baseball is the largest baseball club in Israel. Our players go on to represent Israel at the European Championships, play professionally, and earn scholarships at American universities. And every one of them started somewhere — many showed up at five years old, never having held a bat. Your baseball story starts here.

You don’t need to know baseball.
We’ll teach you.

Most kids who join the Sharks have never held a bat. Some have never seen a game. That’s exactly who this is for. Real coaches, real practices, and a real path that goes as far as you want to take it — from a once-a-week chug at Sportek all the way to Team Israel and the Premier League.

Our Families

What families say.

My daughter joined at 7 — the smallest player on the team. The coaches believed in her from day one. She got a pink helmet, started hitting home runs, and never looked back. Her confidence went through the roof.

התאומים שלי הצטרפו בגיל 8. מאז הם לא מחמיצים אימון אחד, לא משחק אחד — וגם אנחנו ההורים לא. זה הפך לבילוי המשפחתי הכי טוב שיש לנו בעיר.
