LEAGUE QUESTIONS

Q. ARE THERE BOUNDARY RESTRICTIONS AS TO WHERE I CAN REGISTER MY CHILD? 
A. NO. FOR THE 2025 SEASON WE WANT EVERY PARENT TO CHOSE WHAT COMMUNITY MAY BE BEST FOR THEIR FAMILY NEEDS. 

Q. IN WHAT DIVISION SHOULD I REGISTER MY CHILD?
A. LITTLE LEAGUE DIVISIONS ARE BASED ON "LEAGUE AGE". YOUR CHILDS LEAGUE AGE IS DETERMINED BY LITTLE LEAGUE BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL GUIDELINES. THE DATES FOR BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL ARE DIFFERENT, BUT EACH DETERMINES THE DIVISION IN WHICH YOUR CHILD WILL PLAY THIS SEASON. CHECK OUT THIS LEAGUE AGE CALCULATOR TO DETERMINE YOUR PLAYER'S LEAGUE AGE. WHEN REGISTERING CHOOSE THE CORRESPONDING DIVISION FOR THEIR LEAGUE AGE.

Q. WHAT HAPPENS IF THE AREA I REGISTER TO PLAY DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH PLAYERS &/OR HAVE TOO MANY PLAYERS? 
A. IF ISSUES ARRISE WITH NOT ENOUGH PLAYERS TO FIELD A TEAM, WE WILL REACH OUT TO THOSE FAMILIES DIRECTLY. WE WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH WHAT AVAILABLE OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE & LET YOU PICK WHAT AREA IS BEST FOR YOUR FAMILY. ANY & ALL ISSUES WILL BE HANDLED IN ORDER OF THE DATE A CHILD IS REGISTERED AND PAID FOR. NO EXCEPTIONS. 

Q. EVALUATIONS
A. EVERY SINGLE PLAYER PARTICIPATING IN THE LITTLE LEAGUE PROGRAM IS REQUIRED TO ATTEND A PRE-SEASON/PRE-DRAFT EVALUATION. 
FOLLOWING SPRING REGISTRATION AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH LITTLE LEAGUE STANDARDS, BRMLL WILL HOST PLAYER ASSESSMENTS. ASSESSMENTS ARE TYPICALLY HELD IN MID TO LATE FEBRUARY.  EVALUATIONS ALLOW US TO CREATE PARITY AMONG TEAMS AND HELP TO ENSURE THAT ALL PLAYERS ARE PARTICIPATING AT AN APPROPRIATE AGE AND SKILL LEVEL.
   
FOLLOWING EVALUATIONS, TEAM COACHES WILL GATHER FOR A PLAYER DRAFT, AND TEAMS WILL BE CREATED.  PARENTS WILL THEN BE CONTACTED BY COACHES SHORTLY THEREAFTER.

**IF YOUR PLAYER IS NOT PRESENT FOR EVALUATIONS/ASSESSMENTS THEIR NAME WILL BE ENTERED INTO A BLIND DRAFT. THE PLAYER AGENT WILL MANAGE OUR BLIND DRAFT & NAMES WILL BE DRAWN AT RANDOM. 

Q. HOW WILL TEAMS BE SELECTED? 
A. BASED ON OUR 5 REGIONS & THE NUMBER OF KIDS REGISTERED FOR EACH AGE GROUP, TEAMS WILL BE DRAFTED IN A MANNER PRESCRIBED BY LITTLE LEAGUE INTERNATIONAL. EACH YEAR PLAYERS WILL ENTER A DRAFT, NO TEAMS WILL RETURN. IF THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH PLAYERS TO FILL A TEAM, BRMLL WILL CONTACT FAMILIES TO PROVIDE ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS. OUR GOAL IS TO NOT OVERCROWD OUR TEAMS. WE WILL FILL TEAMS BASED IN ORDER OF THE COMPLETION OF REGISTRATION. NO EXCEPTIONS WILL BE MADE IN JUMPING DOWN THE LIST TO ALLOW REGISTRANTS TO PLAY OVER SOMEONE ELSE.

Q. WHAT'S INCLUDED WITH REGISTRATION?  
A. REGISTRATION COVERS YOUR CHILDS JERSEY TOP , HAT & INSURANCE. IT ALSO COVERS PAYING FOR UMPIRES,, FIELD MAINTENANCE, BASEBALLS/SOFTBALLS & OTHER OPERATIONAL EXPENSES.
