New Division -- with World Series -- Created in Little League Baseball for 2013

May 8, 2012

 

Dear Little League Parents,

 

We wanted to let you know some exciting news: For the first time since 1999, a new division of play has been created in Little League.

 

Featuring a pitching distance of 50 feet and base paths of 70 feet, the new baseball division for players who are league-age 11-13 will be offered for the 2013 regular season. It will include postseason tournament opportunities, including a World Series.

 

The new baseball division will serve as a bridge between the current "Little League" size baseball field (46-foot pitching distance, 60-foot base paths) and a standard baseball diamond with 60.5-foot pitching and 90-foot base paths.

 

Full details on the new division, and all of the decisions from the recent meeting of the Little League International Board of Directors, can be found here.

 

Much more information on the new division will be forthcoming in the months ahead, so please stay tuned to the Little League Web Site (www.LittleLeague.org) and to our main Facebook page (www.Facebook.com/LittleLeagueBaseballAndSoftball) for the most recent updates.

 

 

Sincerely,

Little League International

2012 National Spit Tobacco Education Program Slogan Contest

Dear Little League Volunteers,

Oral Health America's National Spit Tobacco Education Program (NSTEP) and Little League International are pleased to announce the 2012 NSTEP Slogan Contest on the health consequences of using spit tobacco.

In 10 words or less, Little Leaguers are asked to create an original slogan that effectively describes the hazards of spit tobacco use. All current Little League Baseball and Softball players age 14 and under are eligible. All entries must be received by July 1, 2012.

The National Spit Tobacco Education Program will award the winner with a paid trip for two for one night, including airfare, hotel accommodations and ground transportation to the Little League Baseball World Series in Williamsport, Pa. (Please note: The World Series begins August 16, 2012 and concludes August 26, 2012. The winner must be able to travel during this period.)

The winner will receive a prize valued up to $500 and the winner's Little League will receive $500 from Oral Health America's National Spit Tobacco Education Program.

For the official 2012 Slogan Contest rules and entry form, click on the following link:

http://www.littleleague.org/learn/programs/nstep.htm

Oral Health America's National Spit Tobacco Education Program (NSTEP) was founded in 1994 as an effort to educate the baseball family and the American public about the dangers of smokeless or spit tobacco, and break the long-standing link between this potentially deadly drug and Americas pastime. Each year, 10 to 16 million Americans put their health at risk by using smokeless tobacco products.

The National Spit Tobacco Education Programs mission is to prevent people, especially children and young adults, from starting to use spit tobacco, and to help all users quit.

Sincerely,

Little League International

Residence Eligibility Requirements Do you have the Right Documents?

In order to play Little League a player must submit documents that prove where they live; and that it is within the League's boundaries.

New for 2012 are changes to the Residence Eligibility Requirements for all divisions of play. They have been amended to read, in part:

Residence shall be established and supported by documents,

dated or in force between February 1, 2011 (previous year) and February 1, 2012 (current year),

Summary and Implementation:

For the 2012 season, this requires players’ parents or guardians to provide residency documentation dated or in force between February 1, 2011 (previous year) and February 1, 2012 (current year). This means, for instance, that a Driver’s License that was issued a number of years earlier, but was in force between the dates noted, is acceptable. However, a utility bill that is dated outside of the dates noted, is not acceptable.
