If your league age is between 4 - 16 you are eligible to play. League Age  is the player’s age as of August 31st of the current season.  What  does that mean exactly? A player’s LEAGUE AGE may be higher than their actual age.  

Example:  When a player registers in the spring they may only be 3 years old. But if they have a birthday on or before  August 31st they are considered 4 years old. In this case it would mean the player is now eligible to play in our T-Ball division.  Fees are also based on a players league age.

In this division players learn the basics  of hitting and fielding.  Players hit the ball off of a batting tee.  Rules of the game may be varied to accommodate the need for teaching.

The primary goals of T-Ball are to have fun,  instruct children in the fundamentals of baseball, and to allow them to experience the value of teamwork.

Season will start  the first week of May..  ending in July.

A manual pitching machine  is used and emphasis is placed on hitting, throwing, fielding and base running.

Players continue to develop their skills and modified baseball rules are introduced.

Season will start  the first week of May..  ending in July.

Peer pitching  is introduced.  Players are encouraged to try playing all positions. There is a fairly liberal strike zone, to ensure that the ball is hit into play often.

All-Stars is a high  level program for skilled and interested players in our league aged 9 and upwards. Our teams compete against other leagues throughout our district and the prairies.

Players need to be available and fully  committed to practice and play throughout the month of July and early August.

There may be travel  involved to tournaments in such places as Airdrie,

Lethbridge, Medicine Hat, Edmonton, Saskatchewan, and other locations.  

All players are encouraged to attend try-outs  for the All-Star team.

We’re very sorry, but this player has not  reached the minimum age limit.  

How young is too young  to start baseball? To play in Little League a player must be at least 4 years old  as of August 31st.  

Players are put into divisions based on their age and abilities. For these little kiddos we start with T-Ball, which will get them used to swinging the bat. Keeping score is not important, and games are really a fun way of teaching fundamentals. And, it’s totally adorable  seeing them out there hitting, running, and trying to make plays.

What can I do to get my child ready?  Get them throwing and hitting some underhand pitches. And when the time comes, our advice would be not to take it too seriously. Take pictures, cheer, and have fun!

We’re very sorry, but this player has reached the maximum  age limit.  

Is there another option?  Calgary North Baseball League provides a Midget division (17 - 19) and a Junior division (19 - 21) to continue playing after Little League baseball.  For more information about the CNBL program, please contact:

Northeast Sportsplex

5206 69 St NE

Typically, players that are 8 yrs old (as of Aug 31) will play in the Machine Pitch division.  But, we’d like to see if these kiddos are ready  to make the jump to the Minor division early.  

The evaluation process will help us determine if they’ve reached the necessary skill level to “play up.”  So we’ll be running a few drills to test their fielding, speed, coordination and focus.  

Please ensure all players are wearing comfortable clothing, and a Jock/Jill strap. Bring running shoes, your glove and a couple bottles of water.

The evaluation process assists us in placing players appropriate to their skill level, and balancing all teams in the division equally.  

There are a number of stations designed to display fielding, speed, coordination and agility. Through which the players rotate and are observed and assessed according to specific criteria.

Please ensure all players are wearing comfortable clothing, and a Jock/Jill strap. Bring running shoes, your glove and a couple bottles of water.
