Recommended for returning players league age 5-7.
The Citrus Little League Rookie Division has been established under the Minor League rules allowing for “machine pitch”. This level of play fosters continued skills development and a better understanding of the rules and nuances of the game. The focus remains on the fun of playing baseball while more coaching attention is given to fielding, making plays, accurate throwing, proper hitting technique, and preparing the player for player-pitch in the Minor Division. Players who are league age 7-9 are eligible. Additionally, a player who is league-age 5 or 6 (use the Little League Age Calculator to determine your child’s League Age for the current year) for the current season and has played at least one year in Tee Ball is also eligible to participate in our Rookie Division.
