Majors Baseball is for all players aged 11&12 years old. Typically, Majors Baseball teams will hold three events (game or practice) per week from mid-April thru Early June. This division will travel to other local towns (Essex, Westbrook, Old Saybrook, Deep River) for games. Practices and Home games will be played at Ethel Peter's Complex or the Eliot Little League Field.

Players will need their own glove, but all other equipment will be provided by the league. For this division, 10.5" or larger youth gloves are recommended. A uniform Jersey, pants and hat will be provided with registration. It is required for players to wear baseball pants and cleats or athletic sneakers during practices and games. Boys are also strongly encouraged to wear a cup and athletic supporter/sliding shorts at this level. If players bring their own bats, they must be approved for Little League International game play and stamped with the "USAbat" logo. All other equipment brought by the player such as batting helmets or catchers gear must be approved for Little League International game play and must be in good working condition.

Coaches at the Majors Baseball level will focus on the continued development of baseball fundamentals while driving the increased knowledge and awareness to game play situations and rules. Majors Baseball is a player-pitch level and all Little League International rules as well as local District 9 rules apply- This is the pinnacle of Little League Baseball where all of the fundamentals learned and experience from earlier years of development come together, and the baseball is top-notch, competitive, and really fun to be a part of.

Teams will typically have 10-13 players per team, and games will be limited to 1 hour and 45 minutes. Players will bat in a continuous batting order throughout the game, but innings will be limited to 3 outs for each team. Strikeouts will be recognized as outs, and the batter will be retired. A team's offensive half-inning is over after 3 outs are recorded or the team scores 5 runs in the inning. The score is kept at this level of play, and players are taught and expected to win and lose with class and respect.
