Senior League
The Senior League program is open to players between the ages of 13 - 16, and consists of players who previously played in either the Majors or International League. Games are played between early April through Memorial Day Weekend followed by playoffs. Players in the 8th grade and H.S. who play on the school teams are welcome to also play Senior League. Every effort is made to create a schedule that is sensitive to the travelling requirements of the school teams. Teams can play up to 4 games per week including weekends with one or more week night games.
Major League
The Major League is our most competitive baseball league for players between the ages of 10 - 12. The intent of the league is to provide the highest level of competition possible within the frameworks of a "Little League" based program. While we are not affiliated with Little League International (The Williamsport program you see on TV) we do use their rules as a framework as we were at one-time a member. Today we are an independant organization. Players selected to a team remain on that team until they age out as a 12 year old. Teams play 3 games per week over a 20 game season, followed by a pre-determined playoff structure. The spring participants are elgible for consideration in the summer Tondorf and Sizzler tournaments.
