The age ranges below are based on "league age" as defined by Little League, which may not be the same as your child's current age. How to determine league age also varies by program.
- For Teeball your child must be 4 by August 31 of the current year.
- For baseball, the league age is the age of your child on August 31 of the current year.
- For softball, the league age is the age of your child on December 31 of the prior year.
Use the Little League age calculator to confirm the league age (make sure it is set to calculate the age for the proper program and season).
