Welcome to Santa Monica Little League Registration!  

SMLL has been a fixture in the Santa Monica community for over 50 years, and we are glad to welcome you to the team.  On behalf of the players, coaches, current families, Board of Directors, and volunteers we wish you a fun and successful season of baseball. 

This registration process is open to anyone within the boundaries of Santa Monica Little League from ages 4-16, as defined by Little League Baseball.  Please know that your child's experience will be most successful when he or she is placed in the best possible division based on both their age and ability.

Registration for Santa Monica Little League requires you to register your child based on their "league age".  For players age 8 and above, Santa Monica Little League will determine team and division placement based on skill evaluations held in January.   

Fees for this season are as follows:
Prior to December 2, 2019:
$240

December 2nd and after:
$275

Lower divisions are organized differently than older divisions, with an emphasis on playing with friends, familiar coaches, and developing a love for the game. Upper division teams are determined by a draft conducted by coaches for AAA, Majors, and Juniors.  All teams are determined with your player's best interest and safety in mind! If you have any questions about team placement, please email the Player Agent at [email protected]. 

There are nine divisions for the 2020 Spring Season, divided into Upper and Lower levels.

Lower level divisions include Tee Ball (ages 4-5), Coach Pitch (age 5-6), and Machine Pitch (age 7-8). All players who are league age 8 need to register as AGE 8 even if your hope is that they play Machine Pitch.  Make sure to note your preferred division as "Machine Pitch" in the registration.  

Upper-level divisions require a player evaluation for kids age 8 and above, with players placed into the appropriate divisions by Little League evaluators. These divisions include AA (kid pitch / age 8-9), AAA (age 9-10), Majors (age 10-12), Juniors (13-14), and Seniors (age 15-17).   

If you are unsure of how to list your child's "Little League Age" please click through to the following link on Little League International website to determine: https://www.littleleague.org/downloads/2020-baseball-age-chart/. Ages are based on a players age as of September 1. For example, if your child was born on September 1, 2011, they are league age 8; if they were born on August 31, 2011, they would be league age 9. 

Have a great season, and see you at the ballpark!
