SINGLE A (ages 5 and 6)


This division is an instructional league and will be divided into two groups, the American and National Leagues where everyone will have equal playing time. The American League will play with a “T” and learn the basics skills of baseball.  The National League will play with a Sling Shot Pitching Machine, while learning how to play baseball.  We will not keep score in this division but we will record outs so the players can learn how the game should be played.  The Single A Division is designed to introduce the game to first-time players while they Learn and have Fun.

 

Fundamentals we will teach in this Division are:

 

 

 

DOUBLE A (ages 7, 8 and 9)

 

This division is also an instructional league and will be divided into two groups, the American and National Leagues with both leagues being introduced to "kid pitch" where everyone will once again have equal playing time. The National League will begin the season with the Sling Shot Pitching Machine and mid way through the season will move to "modified kid pitch". There will be no walks in this league. The American League will play "modified kid pitch".  There will be no bunting or stealing in either League. We will keep score in this Division, but Team records will not be tracked.  The Double A Division is designed for the players to build off their Single A experience while learning additional skills to help them become a more complete Baseball Player.

 

Fundamentals we will teach in this Division are:

 

 

 

TRIPLE A (ages 9, 10 and 11)

 

This division is REAL BASEBALL!!!!  The players will once again have equal playing time while following baseball rules including stealing, bunting and walks.

This division will take the skills the players have learned in Single A and Double A and expand on these skills to help your baseball player have FUN while playing competitive baseball

MAJORS (ages 11 and 12)

 

Your child has made it to MAJOR LEAGUES. This is the highest level of LITTLE LEAGUE. Our kids are playing to be able to move on to the LITTLE LEAGUE WORLD SERIES in Williamsport, PA.  Well, we can DREAM with our kids can’t we?  Just like Triple A, REAL LITTLE LEAGUE BASEBALL is played in a competitive way, while still teaching the players the importance of sportsmanship.  Our players will demonstrate everything they have learned over their baseball careers as they play to become the Major League Champions in the end of season round robin tournament.
