Baseball Program Registrations

Divisions of Play

Division placement is determined by a combination of variables including player league age, skill level, prior league experience, prior coach recommendation, Little League guidelines and parent input. The registration application will ask several questions to help us determine the correct division for your child based on these variables. You will find information below to help with this process.

Baseball Divisions of Play

Little League Age

We offer many programs for ages 4-16. Please see the below League Age determination chart as Little League International has recently made changes to the League Age Definition which could impact your child’s age for the 2021 Little League season.

Special Division Requests

When registering, select the age appropriate division. If you want to request for your son or daughter to be eligible to “play up” in an older division, enter that request in the special request section on the registration form. Please note, however, that limited play up requests will be granted as our experience over many years has shown that players benefit more from being in an age appropriate division as opposed to possibly having to compete for playing time and not pitching in an older division. Likewise, enter “play down” requests in the special request section.

Laurel Little League reserves the right to re-assign a child to a division other than the one in which he or she is originally registered or requested by his parent. This is done for a variety of reasons: safety, the need for equal teams, for the development of any one particular child, to ensure that each division has the requisite number of players, or for the general well-being of the league as a whole.

Buddy Requests

If possible and not guaranteed, two (2) friend requests are honored at the non-competitive Tee Ball and Coach Pitch levels. All kid-pitch divisions are drafted and no guarantees will be made except in the case of siblings. Requests will be provided to drafting coaches for consideration, however a priority will be given to balancing the level of play across teams before buddy requests.

Uniforms

Each player will receive a uniform shirt, pants, hat, and either socks or belt (depending upon division) which is included in the cost of registration.

Game and Practice Schedules

LLL Baseball games and practice schedules won't be published until after registration closes and team formation is complete.
