The Citrus Little League Tee Ball program provides an environment where players will learn the skills of the game, while having fun and staying active. Players who are league age 4-7 are eligible to be selected to a Tee Ball team.

The Citrus Little League Rookie Division has been established under the Minor League rules allowing for “machine or coach 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.

The Minor Division of Citrus Little League promotes a high level of competition and emphasizes the standard rules of Little League baseball.

Players who are league age 7-12 are eligible to be selected to a Minor League Division team for the regular season.

This division promotes competition to a high degree as compared to the Minor Division. Within this highly competitive environment, the emphasis remains on improving baseball skills, building individual self-esteem, promoting team camaraderie and emphasizing fair play. The Major Division is designed to prepare players for higher levels of play including advancement in Little League Tournament play and readiness to move up to play on the full 90' foot diamond. Players who are league age 9-12 are eligible to be selected to a Citrus Little League Major Division team for the regular season.

Citrus Little League believes that players excel and rise to the challenges placed in front of them and recommend that younger players "play up" as much as possible to help push them into higher levels of play where they will see better pitching and play making. If you are unsure if your younger player should sign up for the Major Division or Minor Division, we recommend signing up for the Major Division and work through the draft process to place you child appropriately.
