To be eligible to play with Little Mountain Baseball, the participant must meet two requirements.

1. Age requirement.  The player must have a "baseball age" between 4 and 12 years old.  Please note that "baseball age" may differ from calendar age.  You can consult this chart to determine your child's baseball age.  If your child is too old to play Little League, they can continue playing with either Vancouver Community Baseball or Vancouver Minor Baseball (LMB's catchment overlaps both of those organizations).  Please refer to the websites of those associations for further information.
    
2. Geographical requirement.  The child's primary residence OR the school they attend must be in Little Mountain Baseball's catchment.  All Little Leagues are required to enforce this policy as it promotes fairness and helps ensure all leagues remain viable and healthy.  Please use the league finder link to determine if your child resides or attends in LMB's catchment area.

Little League Canada has divided Canada up into Leagues with clearly defined boundaries. In our District (District 1), there are four Little Leagues: Little Mountain, Kerrisdale, Dunbar, and Jericho.

If your player wants to play the competitive All Stars tournaments (9/10 or 11/12) or Selects tournaments that take place each year following the regular season, they must play for their home league in the regular season. It can be very disappointing for a child and their family to discover they aren't eligible for All Stars/Selects when they reach the age of 9 or 10 because they have been playing out of boundary.

Which Division to Register Your Player

Little league divisions are organized by “baseball age”, which is based on a calendar starting in September. You can find your child's baseball age HERE. Based on your player’s baseball age you can register in the following divisions. Some ages span across more than on division, so please consult the division pages HERE to determine the appropriate level for your player. For Mini Minor A, Minors and Majors divisions, players may be moved across divisions based on assessments. This is to ensure that players are playing in the correct division for their ability and safety: 

Challenger baseball age 4-18

Blastball– baseball age 4-5

TBall – baseball age 5-6

MIni Minor B– baseball age 6-7

Please note: If your player would like to play in Mini Minor A, they will need to be assessed. Please consult the division page HERE for more information.

Mini Minor A– baseball age 7-8

Minors – baseball age 9-10

Majors B – baseball age 9-12

Please note: This level is mostly for baseball age 10-11, however players who are baseball age 12 are permitted to play if they wish, and players who are baseball 9 may be drafted onto a Majors B team if their assessment scores are high enough and there is room. Please consult the division page HERE for more information.

Majors A – baseball age 10-12.

Please note: Most of the players in this division are baseball age 11 or 12, however a few players aged baseball age 10 may be drafted on teams if their assessment scores are high enough and there is room. Please consult the division page HERE for more information.

For Mini Minor A, Minors and Majors divisions, pre-season assessments are required to ensure teams are competitively balanced as possible and players are playing in the correct division for their ability.
