Baseball Major Division

Major Division (Ages 11–12)

The Major Division is for players aged 11 and 12, providing a full baseball league experience in High Park Little League. Once players graduate from Minor, they advance to Major — no further tryouts are required. The division comprises 8 teams, each playing one or two games per week in the same park system, with weekday games at 8:00 pm and variable weekend scheduling (May–August)

Games last about two hours, and players are expected to arrive an hour in advance for warm-ups and skill training. Throughout the season, players engage in practices (usually on weekday evenings) and may receive additional batting practice slots depending on facility and coach availability

Standings and scores are kept, and the regular season concludes in late August before transitioning to September playoffs. The playoff format includes three rounds: the first two rounds are best-of-three series, while the finals are best-of-five, with home team and championship trophies at stake

Registration for 2025 is $330, and all games are played at Ernie Keith Field. Required gear includes a batting helmet, baseball glove, jock/jill, and cleated baseball shoes (no metal cleats)
