Central Altadena Little League supports players ages 4 to 14, and is divided into the following levels of play:

Please note that all ages refer to "League Age" which is the age of the player at the end of Spring Season (August 31).  E.g. a 8 year old who turns 9 in July would be considered "League Age" 9.

T-Ball (Ages 4-6):

This is the first introduction to baseball for most players and focuses on basic skills (throwing, catching). It is non-competitive and game scores are not recorded. The ball is hit from a tee and no experience is required. Ages range from 4 to 6 years old. 

Farm (Ages 6-8):

This division focuses on fielding and hitting a pitched ball. All pitching in this division is done by a coach.  Advanced 6 year old players with at least a year of T-Ball experience can play in the Farm division. 

Players interested in registering for Farm at age 6 should:

• Be able to make semi-accurate throws and play catch with each other
  • Understand the basic stances (batting, fielding) and throwing motion

Minor AA (Ages 8-10):

This is the first division where teams play competitively with players pitching, umpires, game scoring, team standings and playoffs.  Advanced 8 year old players may be drafted to a Minor AA team.  While 10 year old players can play in this division it is discouraged and requires the approval of the player agent.

Minor AAA (Ages 10-11):

This division plays competitively with full little league rules and serves to get players ready to play in the Majors division. Advanced 9 year old players may be drafted to a Minor AAA team.

Majors Program (Ages 11-12):

Majors is the highest level of play for traditional Little League. It plays competitively with full little league rules. Advanced 10 year old players may be drafted to a Majors team. 

Intermediate (Ages 12-13):

Intermediate (often called 50/70) is a stepping stone between Little League and high school baseball. Rules more closely mirror high school baseball (e.g. balks, lead offs, etc.) but the field is slightly smaller than a full baseball field (60/90).

Juniors (Ages 13-14):

Juniors play with full high school baseball rules on a full baseball field (60/90).
