Tri-Cities to Add New 50/70 Division
VERY IMPORTANT - starting THIS FALL. 13 year olds will be allowed to choose between playing 50/70 division baseball OR moving up into Juniors division baseball. This is a personal choice for each family to make together. Here are some points to consider:
• 50 ft pitching mound vs. 60 ft (high school size) pitching mound.
• 70 ft base running vs. 90 ft base running
• For those who are ready, 60/90 may start preparing players for stepping up to high school level ball.
• TRI-CITIES WILL HAVE a 50/70 division next spring that WILL BE INCLUSIVE OF 13 year olds. Players 11-13 will be allowed to play in this division.
• Little League International will be sponsoring a 50/70 World Series NEXT SUMMER!
• 10 year olds WILL NOT be allowed to play up into 50/70 division.
• TRI-CITIES IS considering also having our regular MAJORS division (46/60) next spring. Majors has always been designed for 11-12 year olds with the option for 10 year olds to play up IF they score high enough in spring evaluations.
Respect the Game!
