Welcome to Bridge of the Gods Little League!
The Bridge of the Gods Little League is a community-focused youth baseball/softball organization that provides children with the opportunity to learn and play baseball/softball in a supportive and encouraging environment. Named after the iconic Bridge of the Gods that spans the Columbia River between Oregon and Washington, this league serves families in the surrounding areas by promoting teamwork, sportsmanship, and healthy competition. With divisions for various age groups, the league offers a structured setting where young athletes can develop their skills, build confidence, and make lasting friendships. Parents and volunteers play a crucial role in the league's success, contributing their time and expertise to ensure that every participant has a rewarding and memorable experience. Through practices, games, and community events, the Bridge of the Gods Little League aims to foster a love of baseball/softball while instilling important life lessons that extend beyond the playing field.
Friend/Coach Request Guidelines
T-ball and coach pitch team request will be the ONLY request granted for friends/coach requests. This promotes a more enjoyable and development-focused experience for young athletes. The rationale behind this restriction is to foster a balanced and inclusive environment where children can play with friends or under preferred coaches, enhancing their enjoyment and engagement in the sport.
Divisions for Player pitch and up, friend requests will NOT be granted. Teams are drafted after assessments by coaches. As players advance to higher age divisions, the focus typically shifts towards competitive balance, skill development, and preparing athletes for more advanced levels of play. Therefore, limiting requests in older divisions helps maintain fairness and ensures that teams are built on a foundation of skill and ability rather than personal preferences. This approach helps create a more level playing field, encouraging all participants to grow and learn within the sport.
Registration
We offer baseball programs for boys and girls ages 4-14, and softball programs for girls ages 6-14. We are excited for another Spring season of baseball and softball.
Before beginning the registration process, we encourage you to read the following information:
- Read the available programs page that provides a description of our baseball and softball divisions. This is helpful if your child's age allows them to participate in a couple of division options. Also, if you are uncertain about the division your child should be in please reach out to our player agents and they can help guide you to the correct division. Contact [email protected].
- Players will be placed in a division based on his or her "League Age" as calculated according to Little League age policy. You can use the age chart under our “Forms and Documents” tab to determine your child's league age, but you do not need it for registration purposes.
- Little Leagues are geographically based, and every player must live or go to school in the League’s boundary area. Our league boundary map includes all of Skamania county and Cascade Locks.
- All baseball players registered for the AA/AAA Minors, Majors, and 50/70 divisions are required to attend our skills assessment session. Softball divisions minors and above must also attend the skills day. These sessions are NOT tryouts, as each player will be placed on a team, but rather an opportunity to assess each player’s skills in order to ensure competitive balance among the teams. A player may attend more than one session, but are required to only attend one. These sessions will be held in early March.
Please contact [email protected] if you have any other questions.
LEAGUE AGE vs. PLAYER AGE (Register by League Age)
A player’s league age is determined using the official Little League Baseball® and Little League Softball® Age Charts. Baseball and softball use different date ranges, and these determine the division in which your child will play.
For Baseball, a player’s league age is based on their age as of August 31 of the current playing year.
For Softball, a player’s league age is based on their age as of December 31 of the previous year.
Use the League Age Calculator to find your child’s official league age.
League Age Date Ranges:
Baseball: September 1, 2025 – August 31, 2026
Softball: January 1, 2025 – December 31, 2025
Multiple programs are offered based on your child’s birth date and league age. Please review the division descriptions to choose the most appropriate program for your child(ren), considering both age and experience.
If you’re unsure which division is best, email [email protected] for help.
REGISTRATION COSTS AND CHANGES
Registration fees have increased for the 2026 season. However, unlike in previous years when jerseys had to be purchased separately by parents or guardians, this year the jersey is included in the registration fee. This year jerseys will be made by Basher's in Portland. Our goal is to simplify the process for you and reduce the number of separate purchases needed. BOGLL will also provide hats for all baseball/softball players and coaches.
2026 Registration Fees:
T-Ball: $65
Coach Pitch: $105
Machine Pitch: $130
Upper Divisions (AAA, Majors, and above): $130
Please note: A registration late fee will be added to all registrations beginning February 5th
Additional Player Costs & Requirements
In addition to the registration fee, players will need to provide their own baseball/softball mitt.
Cleats are optional but highly recommended, and required for Majors Baseball/Softball and above.
A protective cup is required for all players in Minors and above.
While jerseys are included in the registration fee and yours to keep, families will still be responsible for purchasing uniform pants, socks, and belt, as directed by the coach once teams are formed.
Optional personal equipment includes:
Uniform purchasing information (if any additional items are needed) will be sent after coaches are assigned and teams are formed.Volunteer Fee
To support our league operations and ensure every team has the help it needs, we have added a $25 volunteer fee for the 2026 season. Families may choose to volunteer in an approved role—such as helping with field clean-up day, scorekeeping, snack shack, team support, or league events—to have the fee waived. If a family is unable to volunteer, the $25 fee will simply remain as part of the registration cost. This system helps ensure that all players benefit from a well-supported, community-driven season.
Registration Late Fee
A $25 Registration late fee will be added starting February 5th for any late registration
