Minors (League Ages 8-11)
The Minors AA and AAA divisions are competitive player pitch divisions.
League age 8 year old players may request approval to register for the Rookies (Coach Pitch) Division, if it is their first season of baseball. Otherwise, they MUST be evaluated for the Minors (Player Pitch) Division.
League age 8-year olds MUST have played one season (preferably two) of Rookies (Coach Pitch) equivalent baseball to be eligible to evaluate to play in the AA division, must have sufficient skill and ability, and are not promised a roster spot in AA (they must be drafted). Players not drafted will remain in the Rookies (Coach Pitch) Division.
League age 7 year old players who want to evaluate to play in the Minors (Player Pitch) Division, must have played one season (preferably two) of Rookies (Coach Pitch) AND must receive approval from SNLL before they can be eligible to take part in a Minors (Player Pitch) evaluation session. Contact SNLL’s Player Agent for more information.
Players and/or their Parents/Guardians do not select whether they wish to play in the AA or AAA division as they are drafted "up".
All players must attend one of the scheduled player evaluations sessions to be eligible for the draft. The AAA Managers draft their players first and then any remaining players are placed in the AA draft pool.
Game scores and standings are kept and will be used to seed the teams for the end of season tournaments. In the spring season, AAA teams may also be selected to play in a District 4 Tournament of Champions after the regular spring season ends.
