Spring Season Divisions

Little League is for children from league age 4-13. Children league age 4-12 will play on a baseball field with 60 foot base paths and children league age 13 in the Intermediate Division will play on a baseball field with 70 foot base paths. SRLL has seven separate Little League baseball divisions. The Juniors division uses a baseball field with 90 foot base paths, leadoffs, and stealing. Scripps Ranch also has a Challenger Division for children league age 4-18 with physical and mental disabilities. More info about Challenger can be found on the Little League website.

An Overview of SRLL’s Divisions

T-BALL - 4-year-olds and 5-year-olds are eligible to play in the T-Ball division only. Beginner 6-year-olds should also register for T-Ball. In the T-Ball division, a (somewhat softer) Reduced Injury Factor ("RIF") ball is used. Pitching is not permitted in T-Ball. Instead, the ball is batted from a tee. T-Ball players do not participate in assessments because players are not drafted when T-Ball teams are formed.
Experienced 6-year olds may be skilled enough to play in the Rookies division. Very highly skilled 6-year-olds are eligible to be drafted to the MAPS division. If you want your 6-year-old to be considered for Rookies and/or MAPS, please check the appropriate box on your registration form. Please not that eligibility for MAPS requires that the player attend assessments and assess well enough to be drafted by a manager in the MAPS division.
SRLL will attempt to accommodate a single request to have a child paired with a friend on their T-Ball team. SRLL also attempts to place players with others from their neighborhood/school area.

Rookies - The Rookies division is for 7-year-old ballplayers and experienced 6-year-olds. In the Rookies division, the coaches use a pitching machine to provide consistent pitches, enabling players to develop proper hitting mechanics. If a player is unable to put the ball in play after 5 good pitches from the machine, the player will hit from a batting tee. Rookies uses a RIF ball which is slightly harder than that used in T-Ball.
The players do not attend assessments, and there is no draft.
As with T-Ball, each child may make a single request to be paired with a friend, and the League will endeavor to place players with other players in the same neighborhood/school area.
Please note that advanced 7-year-olds and highly-skilled 6-year-olds may elect to be eligible to be "drafted" to play in the MAPS division. In the MAPS division, coaches utilize a pitching machine, but pitches are delivered at a higher speed than in the Rookies division. Eligibility for the draft requires that the player attend assessments. If your player wants to to try out for MAPS, please check the appropriate box on your registration form.

MAPS - MAPS is short for "machine pitch." The MAPS division is for 8-year-old ballplayers, advanced 7-year-olds, and highly-skilled 6-year-olds. Players in the MAPS division are required to attend assessments and are selected by team managers in a draft. All timely-registered 8-year-olds are guaranteed a spot in MAPS (unless they elect eligibility to, and are drafted to, a higher division). All divisions from MAPS to Majors have a post-season double-elimination Championship Tournament, culminating in a Championship Game played on Closing Day.
Due to the draft procedure, friend requests are not honored at the MAPS level and above..

Lower / Upper Minors and Majors - Placement in these divisions is based on a “draft.” Typically, 9 and 10 year olds play Lower Minors, 11-year olds play Upper Minors, and 12-year olds play Majors. However, a child’s skill, not age, is the ultimate factor in deciding which division the child is selected to. 12-year olds are required to play Majors unless a special request is made and approved by Little League. As players progress through the divisions, the rules progress to allow such things as base stealing, stealing home, etc. Beginning with Lower Minors, the players pitch to the opposite team. SRLL offers clinics for these emerging pitchers, to help them to learn to pitch, as well as to improve the quality of pitching, which will result in better and more accurate pitches for the batters, and a more fun game for all. Starting in Upper Minors, in addition to the post-season Scripps Ranch Championship Tournament, teams will be eligible to go to District 32 post-season play in the “Tournament of Champions.” In addition, the most skilled 9 and 10-year olds will be selected to represent SRLL in the Little League 9 and 10 year olds All Star Tournament.

Intermediate - The Intermediate Division bridges the transition from Little League (46/60) to Junior League Baseball on a full-size field (60/90). Placement in Intermediate is based upon the “draft”; and each Intermediate team is made up of 12 and 13 year olds with rules that are closer to conventional baseball, such as leading off bases, pickoff attempts, etc. For the Intermediate Division, there is a pitching distance of 50 feet and the distance between bases is 70 feet. SRLL Intermediate Division competes for the post-season Scripps Ranch Championship and District 32’s Tournament of Champions. In addition, this division will also yield an All-Star team to represent SRLL in the area wide Little League All Star Tournaments.

Juniors Division - This division is for players league age 14 to 16 who want to continue their little league experience. The division plays on a larger field with 90’ base paths (the same size as 8th and 9th graders play on at school) and utilize leading off, big barrel bats, metal cleats and full baseball rules, in a fun and safe environment.

Challenger Division - Little league is truly for everyone. If you have a son or daughter from age 5 to 18 who is developmentally, physically, or mentally challenged, Little League has a wonderful “Challenger” program, which may provide your child a great opportunity to play baseball in a fun, stress free environment. If you would like more information about this program, please contact the President .
