What division should I register for?

Little League issues an age chart based on the calendar year (January 1 - December 31) to determine which division players should register for. Divisions are Tee Ball, 8U, 10U, 12U, and 14U.

SPRING SEASON
Players must register for the correct division according to their birth year. Players will be required to submit either address verification, which can be uploaded during registration, or school verification, which can be downloaded HERE, filled out, and uploaded after registration.

Please review the Sizing Chart before registering to ensure your player gets the correct size Jersey and Pants.


Email us at [email protected] if you have any questions about divisions or CLICK HERE to view the Little League's age chart.

FALL SEASON
Players who will be age eligible to move up the following Spring will register for the new division for Fall. Fall Softball is a slower paced, instruction season, allowing player the opportunity to try out new positions and to transition from the lower division to the next division. If you have questions about keeping your player at their Spring division please contact us at [email protected]

TEAM PLACEMENT
Tee Ball/8U
Teams are typically made up of 6-10 players. There is no waitlist for these divisions. Requests for teams and accommodations for schedules will be taken into consideration but do not guarantee placement on a specific team.

10U/12U/14U
Registration is on a first come, first serve basis. When a team has a full roster, your child will be placed on a waitlist* until we have enough players to create additional teams.

*Being placed on a waitlist does not mean your child won't be placed on a team but also does not guarantee placement on a team. The waitlist gives us time to recruit additional players to fill additional teams for all players to be able to participate. Please be patient as we work our softball magic.

Fall Registration

2025 Fall Softball

There will only be 12U and 14U/16U** Fall Ball for the 2025 Fall Season. Registration will be based on your 2026 Spring Season age eligibility. If you wish for your player to remain at the 2025 Spring Season Division please register and then email us at [email protected].

*All players for 12U and 14U/16U Fall Ball will be waitlisted to determine interest. Once a team can be formed parents will then be able to complete registration.

**14U/16U will be one team comprised of players age eligible for 14U and 16U. Little League District 2 opens the fall season up to 16U to allow for more teams to be formed.
