Little League boundaries in Abilene are determined by elementary school attendance zones. Your child should play in the league that represents your elementary school attendance zone. Your elementary school attendance zone is the elementary school zone that your residence is located in.
If you attend a different school on a transfer, you still play in the league that represents the elementary school attendance zone your residence is located in.

Per the Little League Rulebook: Players and their parents/guardians are advised that a false statement of residence may lead to ineligiblity to play Little League Baseball. Under NO circumstances does ANY person have the authority to grant a waiver that allows a child to play in a local Little League program IN ANY DIVISION, when that child does not qualify under these residency requirements.
FAQ from Little League Rulebook:
Q: Can a local Little League waive its rights to a player who lives within its boundaries, allowing that player to participate in another Little League program?
A: A local Little League does not have the authority to waive such rights. ONLY THE CHARTER COMMITTEE IN WILLIAMSPORT HAS THIS AUTHORITY.
Q: Can a child who does not have residence within a league's boundaries play in that league for the regular season only, provided he/she is not eligible for Tournament Play?
A: No. However, the local league may request a waiver, listing all circumstances that warrant such waiver. Only the Charter Committee in Williamsport can make the final decision.

There have been some adjustments in league boundaries for the upcoming 2012 season in Abilene.
Key City and Cedar Creek have merged together to form what will now be known as Eastern Little League. Kids from Lee, Johnston, Taylor, Bowie and Thomas Elementary Schools will comprise the new Eastern Little League.
Northern Little League has acquired the College Heights attendance zone so that when the new Martinez Elementary School opens next fall, all those kids attending the new school will play in one league.
