Please contact us at [email protected] about receiving your Multi-Player discount.
 
Advanced Divisions (League Age 13 and up)
In coordination with D44 leagues, we are implementing advanced divisions at Westside! This includes Intermediate, Junior, and Senior divisions. In the event we are unable to fill a complete roster for a division, we will coordinate with other D44 leagues to make sure all players find a team.

For any inquiries about registering for the Advanced Divisions, please contact us at [email protected].
 
Volunteer Requirements
  • Each family is required to accrue 12 volunteer hours during the season. Additionally, one snack shack shift is required per player and will count towards the 12 hour requirement. There will be a $40 charge for each unfulfilled hour at the close of the regular season. Which will fall at the end of May. If the volunteer commitment is not completed, players will be excluded from all Post Season play (this includes TOCs, Allstars/9u/8u) and following Seasons if there is a balance on your account at the end of the season.
  • A $480 buy-out option is available at registration to eliminate the 12-hour family volunteer requirement. This buy-out includes one (1) snack shack shift. Please note each family is required to complete one snack shack shift per player. Note: This is optional. Please do not select this option if you plan to fulfill your volunteer hours throughout the season.
  • Please visit our Volunteer Opportunities Tab for more details

Which Spring Division Should I Choose?

Please note you can still sign up even if you haven't had prior baseball experience. Use the info below to help guide your player's age appropriate division.

Players normally play two seasons in each division. We encourage players to move up in divisions if they have the experience.

League age 7 years and older should attend player evaluations so managers, coaches, and board members can assess each player's experience and skill level before teams are drafted. This helps the league to establish the player pool and appropriate number of teams for each division, and to place each player in the appropriate division for their development. (Players can be moved down or moved up a division after Player Evaluations)

By Division:

Lower Divisions
Tee Ball Division (League age 4-5 year olds) : No previous/very minimal prior baseball experience. Kids hit off a tee.

Rookie Division (League age 5-7 year olds) : Minimal baseball experience. Coach pitch.

Upper Divisions
Farm Division (League age 7-9 year olds) : Minimal experience/a child who falls in this age range.
Minor Division (League age 8-10 year olds) : Has experience/a child who falls in this age range.
Major Division (League age 10-12 year olds) : Has experience/a child who falls in this age range.

Advanced Divisions
Intermediate Division (League age 11-13 year olds) :
 Has experience/a child who falls in this age range.
Junior Division (League age 12-14 year olds) : Has experience/a child who falls in this age range.
Senior Division (League age 13-16 year olds) : Has experience/a child who falls in this age range.
