Volunteer

                   The Volunteer

The volunteer is one with a heart so sincere,

No task too large, no task too small

Who will help with anything at all.

Who will be there in the morning light,

or help in the dark of night

The Volunteers, our extra hand,

on whose future our children stand

Never anyone so dear as a Volunteer.

TOURNAMENT BULLETIN

The Little League International Tournament Committee has made the following modifications to the 2008 Tournament Rules and Guidelines in baseball.  These changes are in effect as of today.

  Participation in Other Programs--The rule that prohibits players from participating in non-Little League programs (dual participation) once Little League tournament play has begun, has been recinded at all levels of play for baseball.   However, the local Little League retains the right to dismiss a player from a tournament team if the player repeatedly misses games and practices.

  Big League--The maximum number of players that can be named on a tournament affidavit is now 17 (increased from 15)

  Senior League--The maximum number of players that can be named on a tournament team affidavit is now 16 (increased from 14)

 

In the case of the first item above, it remains Little League International's position that a local Little League should expect that players it selects for this honor will make playing for the Little League Tournament team their priority

 

For the other two items, the maximum number has been increased because of the nature of play in these divisions.  With players in these age groups having jobs or other responsibilities, this gives managers more flexibility to ensure that games are not delayed or forfeited because of the lack of players



RULE 1.10
Effective immediately, the prohibition of white bats at all levels has been rescinded

CHILD ABUSE

LOCAL RULES
Your league's local rules, ground rules and bylaws are developed, maintained and approved annually by the Board of Directors and are not considered part of the Constitution.   NONE of the local rules should conflict with Little League Rules, Regulations, and Policies.

12 YEAR OLD WAIVER TO MINOR DIVISION
A new form has been developed by Little League for leagues to use to place a 12-year-old in the Minor Division.  This form can be downloaded from ther handout section of this website.
