Baseball utilizes Baseball League age for both boys and girls; and softball utilizes Softball League age for girls only. Once you sign in to register, Active will show you which divisions your child is eligible for age-wise. Baseball league age and Softball league age are different and below is a link to the calculator (Active will calculate your child's age too)

League Age Calculator 

T-Ball: For children (co-ed) ages 4-6 years (League Age). If your child is league age 7 and you feel your child is not ready for AAA (coach's pitch) please petition to play down with the league's player agent.

AAA: Coach/Machine pitch for children (co-ed) ages 6-8 years (per league age). This level is for both boys and girls to prepare for both Minors baseball and Minors softball. There is a requirement of one year of T-Ball to enter this division. More structure is entered into play in the division.

Softball Minors: Player pitch for players ages 9-11 years League Age (8 year olds can be considered for play up if drafted after skills evaluation; 11 year olds normally play Majors but can play minors with League permission). This is the next step in building on the fundamentals of softball. There is a requirement of one year of AAA to enter this division. More structure is entered into play in the division. Players league age 8 should have parents submit a petition to play up if interested in having their 8 years old child advance to minors division.
The league may need to adjust ages depending on the number of players (may move some 9-10 year olds up to majors depending on league needs). Please be flexible as we will determine teams once we have registration details.
