| Description | The Babe Ruth division is for players aged 17-19 who have aged out of the Seniors division and can therefore no longer continue with Little League. Involves competition using official baseball rules on a full sized diamond, with playoffs at the end of the season. Players within this group will be eligible for selection to the post-season tournament team. |

| Games | Teams play twice per week. The schedule will vary from week to week to allow all teams to play one another. Rained out games are rescheduled. |
| Practices | Teams practice once per week. Teams in this division may also book sessions in the Myrtle Park batting cage. |
| Teams | Teams are made up of 11-16 players. Assessments are not used for this division. Teams are formed via a draft process to try to build balanced teams. If you have a specific player request, please contact the player agent prior to the draft. |
