Divisions of Play

Our number one priority is the safety of our players, followed closely by our desire to provide them with a memorable and fun experience. Division placement is determined by a combination of variables including player league age, skill level, prior league experience, prior coach recommendations, Little League guidelines, and parent input.

And returning to NVLL for the first time in 8 years - Girls Softball!! 
For girls interested in softball, we recommended selecting the Evaluation Girls Softball choice listed at the bottom. Softball will be open to girls league age 6-12. There will likely be two divisions formed from this group after evaluations are conducted. Note that league age calculation differs for baseball and softball.



Little League Age
We offer many programs for ages 5 to 16. Please see the below League Age determination chart as Little League International has recently made changes to the Little League Age Definition which could impact your child’s age for the 2025 Little League season. 



Division and Friend Requests

“Play Up”, “Play Down” or “Player Friend or Coach” requests will be handled on a case-by-case basis. 

  • TeeBall, 5Pitch, A, and AA divisions allow up to two (2) players, or one (1) manager request and one (1) player request. There are no guarantees requests will be accommodated.

  • Junior, Major, and AAA are all drafted divisions. There are no player or manager requests.

NVLL reserves the right to re-assign a child to a division other than the one in which he or she is originally registered or requested. This is done for a variety of reasons: safety, the need for equal teams, for the development of any one particular child, to ensure that each division has the requisite number of players, or the general well-being of the league as a whole.


Uniform and Team Photos
Each player will receive a uniform shirt, hat, one (1) team photo, and one (1) individual photo as a part of the cost of registration.



Game and Practice Schedules
NVLL baseball games and practices schedules won’t be published until after registration closes and team formation is complete (early to mid February)



Volunteering
In order to continue the development of our players, North Venice needs managers, coaches, and team representatives to take on the tasks of organizing, coordinating, and managing our teams. If you are interested in serving in one of these capacities, please complete the Volunteer Form when you register. You will not be allowed to volunteer without completing this form.


 

Registration Fees - New This Year

Residency Requirements - Updated
League Age 4 - 7

Starting with the 2025 season, children at the youngest level of the Little League® Baseball and Softball program (League Age 4-7) throughout the United States will have the ability to register for any Little League program they choose, without respect to any geography- or school-related eligibility requirements. Those players who register under this option will also be fully eligible to participate in all aspects of league play, including International Tournament play, for the duration of their Little League careers provided they have continuous and unbroken participation from the time they are League Age seven within the specific league where initially registered and provided all other participation eligibility requirements have been met.

League Age 8-16

Your child must reside in the North Venice Little League boundary area, or your child must attend a school in the NVLL boundary area.  In some cases, a waiver can be requested based on the situation. If a player league age 8-16 has a younger sibling age 4-7 who elects to play at NVLL, the older sibling will be waived to play at NVLL as long as the younger sibling continues to play. 

Refunds
Registration fees will be refunded in full, less a $25 processing fee per player, prior to January 31, 2025. There are no refunds after January 31, 2025


Financial Assistance
NVLL has full or partial scholarships available to cover registration fees as needed. Please complete the Financial Support Request form if assistance is needed.
