The Minor Division is a player’s introduction to a more complete game of baseball and emphasizes the teaching of fundamentals. However, it is still early in their physical development. This division strengthens their understanding of teamwork, organization, and friendships with other players. Minor division players will receive live pitching for the first time as well as base stealing. The physical skill of the players will begin to match the required fundamentals of catching, throwing, batting and game situations to move to the next level.

The season is divided into preseason and regular season games, with preseason games being played during the first third of the season, and the regular season games played in the remainder. The transition from preseason to regular season will be announced by the league commissioner, and will occur on a Monday. Players League Age 8, 9, 10, and 11 are eligible for participation in the Minor Division. Note: for 12 year olds to play minors or below, please see V(a). Players League Age 8 and 9 that do not tryout are subject to assignment in Farm Division.
