Port Townsend Little League is a non-profit youth baseball and softball league offering a fun, supportive, instructional and competitive experience for boys and girls ages 4 through 14 residing in Port Townsend, or attending Port Townsend Schools. Programs focus on the development of baseball and softball skills, sportsmanship, and a love for the game in a family-oriented, all-volunteer community.

PTLL offers the following programs and divisions of play:
* TEE BALL: New or inexperienced players (Co-ed, ages 4-7)
* BASEBALL (Co-ed): Minor Prep (machine-pitch, ages 5-11), Minors (player-pitch, ages 7-11), Majors (ages 9-12) and Juniors (ages 12-14)
* GIRLS SOFTBALL: Minors (Girls ages 7-12) and Majors (Girls ages 9-12)

Port Townsend Little League is chartered by Little League International and is a member of Washington's District 2. It is managed by an annually-elected, all-volunteer Board of Directors that operates in accordance with the rules, regulations, and policies of Little League International. Our league is funded by registration fees, sponsor donations and other fundraising activities and events - and is operated solely through volunteer efforts of its General Membership.

Our 2019 season will run from approximately March through late-May or early-June.  Skills Assessment will be on Sunday, February 24th, 12:00 - 3:00 p.m. at the PT Little League Fields. Practices may start as early as late February or early March; an Opening Day Jamboree (ceremony and game) on March 23rd and games in April, May and possibly into early June. Qualifying teams may also play additional tournament games later in the season. (Click on the "Highlights" tab above for more "Mark Your Calendar" dates.)

To begin registration, select the program and division that you think most suits your child's age and skill level.  Final division selections will be made by our volunteer Player Agent(s) and Board of Directors (as needed).  So, if you're not quite sure which division to sign up for, just take your best guess to get started!

IMPORTANT NOTE:  PTLL continues to keep registration fees low to make registration accessible overall.  This year, instead of a "non-volunteer fee", we are trying a $25 rebate at the end of the season - for any parents who have contributed at least 4 hours of volunteer time during the season. This is to continue to encourage parents to contribute to the program with their time, not just their dollars!  During the registration process, you'll be given the opportunity to select a volunteer role (including the option to "assign me where I'm needed").  If you know that you don't have time or inclination to volunteer, you can select the non-volunteer option instead.  We understand that sometimes it's all we can do to get our kids to practices and games!  But if you can, we encourage everyone to participate as a volunteer as well - as it takes a village to run this program.  With your help, we look forward to the continued growth of the Port Townsend Little League Program! Thank you for your involvement!

The Port Townsend Little League MISSION:

Through proper guidance and exemplary leadership, the Port Townsend Little League program assists youth in developing the qualities of citizenship, discipline, teamwork and physical well-being. By espousing the virtues of character, courage and loyalty, the Little League T-Ball, Baseball and Softball program is designed to develop superior citizens as well as proficient athletes.

The Port Townsend Little League Community is composed of all those who participate in and support the Little League Mission in Port Townsend. It consists of the players, managers, coaches, league officials and volunteers, parents, grandparents, siblings and cousins, friends and last but certainly not least, the sponsors and advertisers without whose financial support the league could not function.

REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN! Please click on the REGISTRATION: PLAYERS & VOLUNTEERS tab above (but DO NOT use the REGISTER button in the far upper right, please. We are in the process of transition to a new website service and this will be eliminated once we make the transition.)

A required* Skills Assessment is scheduled for Saturday, February 22nd, 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. (age-specific timeslots will be announced closer to the date).

If we're able to hold the Assessment at the fields, the Concessions Stand will be open!!  

All kids who attend the Skills Assessment will be placed on a team that is appropriate for their age and skill level, and you will be notified of your child's placement shortly after the Skills Assessment date.

* Note: if your player is absolutely not able to attend the required Skills Assessment day, please contact our volunteer Player Agent immediately at [email protected] to discuss possible options.

Once your child has been assigned to a team and a coach, your coach will contact you within a week or so to start sharing information about practice schedules, game schedules and other details.

If you have general questions about the program - feel free to contact our board of directors at [email protected].  Again, information about practice and game schedules will come directly from your team's Coach.  Please give them some time to assess team needs, and they will be in contact with you shortly after the Skills Assessments are complete.
