Draft Level Baseball Leagues encompass all baseball played between 3rd - 7th Grade (if age qualified) under Little League International guidelines. 

Because Little League age requirements and participants school year do not always match up WSLL has allowed for an overlapping of leagues. 

The Draft Level division your participant is selected for will be made based on 1) Grade/Age Level AND 2) Skill level as determined by past player evaluations. You will be notified before the official Player Draft as to what division your participant has been slotted. 

The following is a brief description of the Draft Level Divisions:

B Minor is for all participants in 3rd grade, some 4th graders may be included depending upon participation levels in B major and A Ball. This is the first year of the draft league. Coaches will draft their players to assemble their team.  Returning players are evaluated on past performance. New players will be evaluated with a tryout. Kids will pitch the entire season. The end of the season will include playoffs and two all-star teams.

B Major is for participants in 4th and 5th grades. Coaches will draft their players to assemble their teams. This is a competitive league that finishes it's season with playoffs and a championship. B Major plays under Little League baseball rules and is Kid Pitch for the entire season. A 10 year District Team will be selected and 2 10 year old All-Star tournament teams will also be chosen to represent WSLL.

The Non Draft Baseball Leagues consist of the Coach Pitch Level and the "C" ball level.

The objectives of the Coach Pitch Level (mostly 1st Grade) are to HAVE FUN while learning basic baseball skills and sportsmanship. Our emphasis at this level is to learn the fundamentals of baseball in a positive, non-competitive environment. Scores will not be kept! Each player, regardless of ability, will have the opportunity to play every position. The team’s coach will pitch to the players of his team. In the beginning of the season games will last around an hour or 3-4 innings, whichever comes 1st. Towards the end of the season teams are allowed to play 3 outs an inning (only max once through the lineup still) and therefore may play more than 3-4 innings.

The objectives at the “C” Level (mostly 2nd Grade) are to begin developing players to play different positions, to evaluate their ability at various positions and to see that they can play these positions without any danger to themselves or their teammates. Games last 1 hour and 30 minutes or 6 innings, whichever comes 1st. 

1^st grade

Instructional league and introduction to softball. The league is an introduction to softball for first time players and those with t-ball experience. Games will be played during the week with practices and make up games on the weekends. This league will be formed using schools as basis, with the intent of having at least two schools on a team. Play will be entirely coach pitch with assistance of using a tee to help speed up the game. The intent of this league is to teach the players proper fundamentals of the game, introduce defensive scenarios and safe/out calls.
