New this Fall: NWLL is now accepting League Age 5-year-olds for its Tball Division. League Age is a player’s age on April 30, 2008. Please tell your friends with young children about this change.
The League, by wide-ranging request, is shifting the division age structure. The goals of the changes are to give kids a younger start in baseball, and a younger start in kid-pitch baseball. The coaches and League leadership believe most 9-year-olds are ready for kid-pitch ball and will have the chance to build their skills sooner. This Fall, 9-year-olds will have the option to move to AAA.
Note also: League Age 12-year-olds have the option this Fall to register for the Prep Division. It's a great chance to move up to a little higher level of play, where those players will play in the Spring.
