Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions – St. Augustine Little League

Where are games played?
SALL operates nine (9) fields located at our complex on Osceola Elementary School Road, off SR 207 in St. Augustine. Most games and practices are held here. Occasionally, interleague play may require travel to nearby leagues such as Jacksonville, Palm Coast, Yulee, Baker County, and others.

Why does my child need to attend tryouts?
"Tryouts" are more accurately called Player Evaluations. Players ages 8–16 are assessed by coaches and board members to help create balanced teams. Once a player is placed on a Majors or Seniors team, they remain with that team and do not need to re-evaluate in future seasons.

What if my child can’t attend their evaluation?
Please email us in advance at [email protected] so we can make note and adjust accordingly.

How does the draft work?
After evaluations, coaches from each division draft players based on skill level to ensure balanced competition. Minor division players are assigned after the Majors draft is complete. Special considerations for siblings and returning players are managed by the Player Agent per Little League International rules.

Can my 10-year-old stay in the Minor division?
Yes, but you must submit a written request to the Player Agent before tryouts. Your child should still attend the evaluation. If a spot opens at the Major level and your child is deemed ready by their coach and the Player Agent, they may be invited to move up.

When will I hear from my child’s coach?
Coaches begin contacting players after teams are formed. This usually occurs shortly after the draft. Tee Ball and Jr. Minor rosters may be released earlier. If you haven’t been contacted, please email us.

What is the time commitment?
Spring practices typically begin mid-February, with games starting in early March and running through May. Expect 2–3 practices per week and 1–2 games weekly. Some divisions may continue into postseason play. The Fall season runs from September to mid-November.

Do I need to purchase equipment?
SALL provides team equipment (bats, balls, catcher’s gear), but players must bring their own glove and cleats. Bats are optional, but if your child brings one, it must be USA Baseball certified and bear the USA stamp.
For approved bat specifications, refer to Little League’s official guidelines: littleleague.org/playing-rules/bat-information.

What else does my child need?
Each player receives a team jersey and hat with registration. Families are responsible for purchasing:

  • Cleats (rubber/plastic; metal permitted for Jr/Sr)

  • Baseball/softball pants

  • A well-fitting glove

  • Athletic supporter (recommended for male players)

All personal gear should be labeled with your child’s name.
