Signing up your child for the correct level of play.
If you'd like, you can familiarize yourself with the official Little League level of play guidelines here.
Also please determine your child's official "league age" here. All ages below refer to this official "league age."
Below is a quick reference guide for all levels NVLL offers. Please note that MOST players will be required to be evaluated, so that the league can adequately assign them to the level commensurate with their ability. Beginning at the minor division baseball level, all players are subject to NVLL’s regular draft process to determine league level and team affiliation.
