Division Guidelines

The league reserves the right to place players based upon roster availability, division structure, overall program enrollment, and skills evaluation.

Team placement is based upon your child's "Little league Age” and not their physical age or school grade.

Instructional Tee Ball is the entry level division for players, ages 4-6 and can be one of the most rewarding for volunteers. Events are instructional based and typically held on Saturday mornings. The experience is grounded in fun, fitness, and fundamentals while also being a key to growing a child’s love for the game. The Little League Tee Ball program provides volunteer coaches with everything they need to create an environment where players will learn the skills of the game, while having fun and staying active. Each Little Leaguer is required to play one season of Tee Ball before being eligible to be evaluated by the local league officials for consideration to advance to a higher division of Little League baseball or softball. The Tee Ball Division is co-ed but may be structured as a baseball or softball program. Such a decision is made by the local league’s Board of Directors.
