Since Fall Ball has a developmental focus, players are placed into Fall Ball leagues based upon what their Little League age will be for the next spring/summer season. WMLL adheres to the “Age Determination Date” requirements established by Little League, Inc. These requirements are different for baseball & softball.
Baseball: Boys & girls that will be Little League aged 7 to 16 for the 2023 spring/summer season are eligible to play 2022 fall baseball at WMLL. A player’s age as of August 31, 2022 will be that player’s Little League age for the 2023 spring/summer season & is thus that player’s age for the 2022 Fall Ball season. (see reference chart here)
Softball: Girls that will be Little League aged 7 to 17 for the 2023 spring/summer season are eligible to play 2022 fall softball at WMLL. A player’s age as of December 31, 2022 will be that player’s Little League age for the 2023 spring/summer season & is thus that player’s age for the 2022 Fall Ball season. (see reference chart here)No residency or school requirements exist for Fall Ball. While Fall Ball is primarily organized to support the needs of the WMLL community, players not living or attending school within the WMLL regular season boundary area (high school attendance area for Madison West, Madison Memorial and Middleton-Cross Plains) are welcome to register and will be placed on teams based on space availability.
