2022 Spring Registration

Below are some details regarding Registration:
Little League Birthday cut-off:
8/31 is the Birthday cut-off date for Little League. So if your child is born 8/31/2012 or earlier, their Little League age is 10. If they were born almost an entire year earlier, on 9/1/2011, their Little League age is still 10.
If they were born 8/31/2011 or earlier, their Little League Age is 11.
The Registration system will guide them into the correct Division (i.e. C Ball vs B Ball).

If you child has an early Birthday and wants to play w/ their classmates, pls reach out to [email protected]
Please note this will make your child ineligible for any District play as Little League strictly adheres to age policy.

Issues w/ Boundaries: Little League has tightened up the Registration process to ensure out of boundary kids don't enroll in the wrong League. Boundaries are based on both Home Address and/ or School of Enrollment. I.e. you can live in Chicago, but attend school @ Highlands and be eligible for LTLL. However, there still can be errors- pls contact the [email protected] and we can sort out.

Buddy Rule:
This is covered in greater detail under Parent Resources- https://www.ltllbaseball.com/Default.aspx?tabid=2652666
In a nutshell- the buddy rule only applies to T and C Ball (Ages 8 and under). There are no buddies for A and B divisions as those are very competitive and a full draft. For C Ball, you may only suggest 1 buddy and they must select your child. For T Ball, we try to put kids together by neighborhood, buddy requests, gender, etc.
