Port Townsend Little League is a non-profit youth baseball and softball
league offering a fun, supportive, instructional and competitive
experience for boys and girls ages 4 through 14 residing in Port Townsend, or attending Port Townsend Schools. Programs focus on the
development of baseball and softball skills, sportsmanship, and a love
for the game in a family-oriented, all-volunteer community.
PTLL offers the
following programs and divisions of play:
* TEE BALL: New or inexperienced players (Co-ed, ages 4-7)
* BASEBALL (Co-ed): Minor Prep (machine-pitch, ages 5-11), Minors
(player-pitch, ages 7-11), Majors (ages 9-12) and Juniors (ages 12-14)
* GIRLS SOFTBALL: Minors (Girls ages 7-12) and Majors (Girls ages 9-12)
Port
Townsend Little League is chartered by Little League International and
is
a member of Washington's District 2. It is managed by an
annually-elected, all-volunteer Board of Directors that operates in
accordance with the rules, regulations, and policies of Little League
International. Our league is funded by registration fees, sponsor
donations and other fundraising activities and events - and is operated
solely through volunteer efforts
of its General Membership.
Our 2019 season will run from approximately March through late-May or
early-June. There will be a required Skills Assessment on Saturday, February 16th, 11:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.; practices may start as early as late February or early March; an Opening Day
Jamboree (ceremony and game) on March 23rd and games in April, May and
possibly into early June. Qualifying teams may also play additional
tournament games later in the season.
To begin registration, select the
program and division that you think most suits your child's age and
skill level. Final division selections will be made by our volunteer
Player Agent(s) and Board of Directors (as needed). So, if you're not
quite sure which division to sign up for, just take your best guess to
get started!
IMPORTANT NOTE: PTLL continues to keep
registration fees low to make registration accessible overall. This year,
instead of a "non-volunteer fee", we are trying a $25 rebate at the
end of the season - for any parents who have contributed at least 4 hours of
volunteer time during the season. This is to continue to encourage parents to
contribute to the program with their time, not just their dollars! During
the registration process, you'll be given the opportunity to select a volunteer
role (including the option to "assign me where I'm needed"). If
you know that you don't have time or inclination to volunteer, you can select the
non-volunteer option instead. We understand that sometimes it's all we
can do to get our kids to practices and games! But if you can, we
encourage everyone to participate as a volunteer as well - as it takes a
village to run this program. With your help, we look forward to the
continued growth of the Port Townsend Little League Program! Thank you for your
involvement!
The Port Townsend Little League MISSION:
Through proper guidance and exemplary leadership, the Port Townsend
Little League program assists youth in developing the qualities of
citizenship, discipline, teamwork and physical well-being. By espousing
the virtues of character, courage and loyalty, the Little League T-Ball,
Baseball and Softball program is designed to develop superior citizens
as well as proficient athletes.
The Port Townsend Little League Community is composed of all those who
participate in and support the Little League Mission in Port Townsend.
It consists of the players, managers,
coaches, league officials and volunteers, parents, grandparents,
siblings and cousins, friends and last but certainly not least, the
sponsors and advertisers without whose financial support the league
could not function.
Our 2019 season will run from approximately March through late-May or early-June.
