Lake Norman Little League offers recreational baseball divisions of play for boys and girls, league ages 4-16. The age determination date for a Little League Baseball player is the actual age of a child on August 31 of the current year for the Spring season, and of the next year for the Fall season. League Age ranges are typical for these programs to keep participants playing age appropriate ball. Age ranges often overlap, allowing players who need a little more time to develop to play down in a division, or play up in a division if they are ready to advance and if approved by the league board. All baseball players above Tee Ball are required to attend a skills evaluation, after which a final determination is made in regards to division placement. Teams are drafted in an attempt to create balance across each division of play.
