As of Spring 2024, the league does not have any practical boundaries as our nearest related charter organization is in Casa Grande and the East Valley/Queen Creek.

This is subject to change season to season as a new charter might be established.

Our program accepts kids (both boys and girls) from ages 4-12.

Please refer to our age chart here.

We use April 30th of the current year to determine the player's "baseball age". The player uses this age for both the Spring and Fall Season.

Please refer to our age chart page here.   Included on the page is also the Babe Ruth age chart for reference.

Our league only allows USA marked bats at all division levels.

The fields we utilize for practice and games include but are not limited to:

• Thompson Peak Park
• Grayhawk Community Park
• Sonoran Hills
• Aztec Park
• Cheyenne Elementary
• Reach 11
• Desert Canyon Middle School and
• Curt Schilling Field at Indian Bend Elementary. 

Our Spring Season runs from late January to early-May. Our Fall season runs from the weekend after Labor Day to the weekend after Thanksgiving.  These ranges are approximations and change slightly from year to year.

T-Ball, Coach Pitch, Machine Pitch and 8u generally have one practice and one game per week.

Tball and Coach Pitch will practice in the outfield at one of the fields.  

Minors (spring only) and Majors play two games per week and also practice once a week. The times and days for games will vary based on the season and park permit availability.

We will do our best to honor those request for both T-Ball and Rookie Teams. There is a field on the registration form to indicate a friend that you would like to be teamed with.

A coach can organize a team and bring them in as a group as well.

Registration fees vary depending on the division.  The fee includes a jersey, a hat, and pictures. 

You should assume additional personal costs for pants, socks and belt based on your assigned uniform that will be communicated by your coach.

End of season awards are included for all participants from Tball through Machine Pitch divisions.

Registration fees include a single or double elimination playoff for 8U and up divisions.  Awards are for Winners and Finalists of the respective playoff brackets. 

Umpires are included in league costs from 8U upwards through the 12U Majors division.
