CLICK HERE for a description of the different divisions of play. 

New for 2020:

• If your child played in either Minors or Majors in Spring 2019 (do not include Fall Ball 2019), you should register your child in the "Returning Minor &  Major" category

• If your child is not a returning Major or Minor player, register them in the appropriate division based upon the descriptions in the link above. 

• If you register your child for "Farm & New Minors & Majors" and he or she is selected to play in Minors or Majors an additional fee of $75 will be due. 

Step 4: Register Online

Please register as soon as possible so we can ensure the right number of teams, managers, coaches and volunteers needed for the upcoming season.

Registration deadline for Minors & Majors divisions is January 31, 2020.  Per Little League rules, all players wanting to play Majors or Minors are required to attend a Player Evaluation session.  See below for dates.

We work hard to include all players, and late registrations may still be accepted, but will be limited to space available.

Email us at registrar@sunnyvalemetro.org if you have questions. 

Volunteering

Sunnyvale Metro is an entirely volunteer run organization. All families are asked to volunteer at both the league and team levels.

Managing/Coaching/Team Parent - If you are interested in managing a team, coaching (helping the team manager), or Team Parent, please complete the registration process for yourself. You will not be charged anything. All managers, assistant coaches, and team parents will be assigned using this system.

Step 5 Attend Player Evaluations

All players league age 8 and older must attend Player Evaluations.

Player Evaluations give League Officials and Coaches the opportunity to evaluate players to ensure they are placed in the division that best suits them. This is based on skill level, age, strength & size.  Players will play catch, field ground balls & fly balls, hit and run the bases.

All players who register will be placed on a team. There are no "cuts" in Little League Baseball. Evaluations are used to assist in determining which level of play will provide the best playing experience for every child.

Evaluations will be held on January 25, 2020 and February 1, 2020. Loaction and times are TBD.
