Special Notes regarding Fall Seasons at LLLThe Age Chart used for our Fall Season is the players age for the following Spring Season (i.e the 2020 Fall Season utilizes the 2021 LL Age Chart). LLL's Fall Seasons typically do not require Tryouts/Player Evaluations. Also, due to the decreased registration numbers during our Fall Seasons, we typically combine the PW7 and PW8 Divisions to form one PW Division and we treat Min 9 and Min 10 in a similar fashion creating one Minor Division.
