Dallas Center-Grimes Little League 

The Dallas Center and Grimes communities have participated in Little League baseball activities for many years.  However, each community has historically had a separate board of directors to manage league activities.  In late 2007, through the hard work of many dedicated individuals the recommendation to combine the boards and league activities was presented to the Dallas Center and Grimes boards. Both boards voted unanimously to adopt the combined board structure.  The combined board structure is now managed according to the DCGLL Constitution.  Additional rules and regulations are established by the DCGLL By Laws.  (Please e-mail mailto:DCGLLPresident@gmail.com to request a copy of the Constitution or By Laws.) 

Online registration starts on January 1st each year and runs through February 28th.  In person registration will be held on selected dates in February in both Dallas Center and Grimes.  Team practices will start in late March or early April (depending on level of play).  Games will start in late April or early May (depending on level of play) and run through June.  Please continue to look for additional details and updates on this site.
