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 (ages 4-7)
* BASEBALL (Co-ed): Minor Prep (machine-pitch, ages 5-11), Minors (player-pitch, ages 7-11), Majors (ages 9-12) and - subject to demand - 50/70s (ages 11-13), and Juniors (ages 12-14)
* GIRLS SOFTBALL: Minors (girls ages 7-12), Majors (girls ages 9-12), and Juniors (ages 12-14)

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 2018 season will run from approximately March through late-May or early-June.  There will be a required Skills Assessment on March 3rd OR 4th (see home page for details); practices in March; an Opening Day Jamboree (ceremony and game) on March 31st 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 has reduced our base registration fee this year to make registration more accessible overall.  For many reasons, we have also added a "non-volunteer fee" this year 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 to learn more about (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 that option and choose to pay the $25 non-volunteer fee instead.  Thank you for your participation!

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 annual SKILLS ASSESSMENTS are coming up THIS WEEKEND!

 Please plan to attend ONE of two upcoming REQUIRED Skills Assessment dates: March 3rd OR 4th, 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m..  Onsite registration will also be available at that time.

Skills Assessments will be held at the Port Townsend Little League fields, located at the Jefferson County Fairgrounds.  Find directions with our "Field Locations" link in the lower left corner of this website (or under "About Us" in the top bar.)  Skills Assessment is REQUIRED in order to complete registration.

If you are absolutely unable to attend one of these dates, please email playeragent@ptll.org to discuss alternatives.

The annual Skills Assessment is intended to help coaches build balanced teams, allowing all kids to play and learn baseball, teeball and softball skills to their maximum potential.  And if your player is eligible (by age) for more than one level of play, and you're trying to decide which level to register them for - the skills assessment will help our volunteer Player Agents select the appropriate placement for your player.

We also use these dates as an opportunity to register your players in-person, and/or to bring and submit the required proof-of-residency forms, adult volunteer forms and any registration fee payments that you did not submit via the online registration system.  PTLL volunteers will be available at the Concessions stand to help answer your registration and volunteer sign-up questions.

See you at the ball fields this weekend!

And SAVE THE DATE for our OPENING DAY JAMBOREE on March 31st, 10:00 a.m. at the Port Townsend Little League Fields.
