This division is for players considered league ages 10U-12U. 12U players are guaranteed a spot on a Majors team. This division continues building hitting, pitching, and fielding skills at a higher level. We recommend that first-year players that are league-age 10 or 11 play in the AAA division to build their skill set prior to playing in Majors. Only highly skilled 10-year-olds will be eligible for Majors.
League age charts can be located here.
Schedule: Three events per week, each 2 hours, including potential Saturdays. Spring games will be played in Lake Stevens, while Fall Ball teams will play home games, as well as away games at other District 1 fields.
Tryouts & Draft:
For spring season: Players registered for Majors are required to attend evaluations. This division does involve a draft, but all players will be placed on a team in the appropriate division based on their skill set. Players who are registered for Majors, but are under the league age of 12U are not guaranteed placement on a Majors team. They could be placed on a team in a younger division. Their placement will be determined by the coaches after attending evaluations. Players who played for a Majors team during the previous spring season are given the option to return to the same team, or attend evaluations to be drafted to a different team.
For fall season: Players can request to play for a specific team/coach. Every effort will be made to accommodate requests; however, fulfillment cannot be guaranteed.
All-Stars: Players can be eligible for All-Stars at this level. If the player attends tryouts, meets Little League International requirements and District requirements, they may receive an invitation from our league to tryout for All-Stars.
