Children at the upper age limit for a division (guide below) should move up to the next division if they have any baseball experience or are reasonably athletic. See our guide "Where Should My Child Play" for guidance.

Player New to South Tahoe Little League:
If your child did NOT play in our League last year, you should still go ahead and register now if you live within our boundaries. Check this League finder map if you aren't sure.
You will have extra requirements to provide proof of date of birth and residency or school attendance within our boundaries. Dates for acceptable proofs are Feb, 2019 to Feb 2020.
See this link for a list of acceptable documents- the school form is way easier, more on that later) can be submitted electronically or by attending one of our document days / help sessions (tentatively 5-7pm on 1/28 at Kahle Community Center and 5-7pm on 2/3 at S. Tahoe Ice Rink).

Player Returning to STNLL:
You should also register here: We are not requiring those supporting documents at this time for returning players unless you have moved. All players should, however, be able to provide them with 48 hours notice upon request before or during the regular season.

VERY IMPORTANT: Be aware that even for returning players we WILL absolutely need documents before your player is eligible for All-Stars.
**This includes birth certificate (original birth certificate required for All Stars) and proofs of school attendance (easiest) or residency dated 2/19 to 2/20.
It's a good idea to collect those documents now for that and in case we request to see them during the regular season.

FAQ

What division is best for my player?

General Information

We try to honor your requests but are also required to comply with the rules of Little League International.
Remember "league age" may be different than birth age. All ages here refer to "league age". Visit this page to view Little League's age calculator or age chart to determine your player's league age. All ages referred to in registration and the FAQs are league age.

What are player evaluations and who has to go?

It is a way for our player agents and coaches to evaluate each player to help us make sure we get balanced teams and divisions. It also helps us plan our divisions as the age and skill structure can vary depending on how many participants we have. We will have a separate announcement later about this and may contact you after evaluations if we have space limitations and need to move kids to a division other than the one in which you registered them.

Players must attend an "eval" session if:
~They are league age 10 or older
~They want to be considered for AAA or Majors regardless of age
~We request a tryout if outside these parameters

What if I can't pay or can't pay online?

Please contact us at [email protected] if this is the case. No one gets turned away from LL for inability to pay.

What is the schedule?

Due to our very unpredictable and ever-changing weather, we have TENTATIVE dates for our events, always subject to change. We would like to hold our our player evaluations by mid-March, draft our teams near the middle or end of March. Practices can start when the weather and fields are clear and safe. We will have to start games shortly after LTUSD Spring Break in April. We have to play our required number of games and finish by early to mid-June to comply with District and National requirements. Our lower divisions (tee ball to AA) may have a later start and shorter season for the comfort and safety of our players.
