Welcome to Sunnyvale
Little League Registration!
Before registering your child,
please READ THIS ENTIRE PAGE
Sunnyvale Little
League offers our Fall season ("Fall Ball"), as a means to allow for further
player development from the Spring season. Fall Ball is a more casual season,
focusing on player development. ALL GAMES ARE PLAYED ON SUNDAYS.
Registration will close on August 11th. There is no late
registration.
1. Know your child's "Little
League age".
To determine your child's playing age, please refer
to the
Little League Age Chart for Baseball or Little
League Baseball's
Age Calculator.
2. No
Residence Boundaries in Fall Ball
Fall Ball is not as
restrictive as the Spring Little League season. We have no residence
requirements for the Fall season, but please keep in mind that this does not
carry over to the Spring season.
3.
Uniforms
As part of the Fall Ball season, Sunnyvale Little League
will provide a dry fit shirt with the SVLL logo and a hat, which will comprise
the uniform package. We do not use MLB branded uniforms in the fall. Players
are required to provide their own baseball pants, socks, belt and cleats.
4. Determine which Division your child will play.
Sunnyvale Little League offers 4 divisions in the Fall: Pioneer,
Farm, Minors, and Majors. The Divisions are aligned by age as follows. Please
refer to the
Little League Age Chart for Baseball to find your
player’s Little League age.

We recommend that players be placed in the
level that they expect to play in the Spring 2020 season. Fall Ball is an
opportunity to play at a more advanced level prior to the more formal Spring
season.

5. Register.
All
registrations are being processed online. Some very basic (but important)
instructions:
- You will first be prompted to create an online
account. This collects parent and player information.
- You will then be prompted to register your
child(ren). Click on the "Register" button next to your child's name to add the
child to your online shopping cart. If you are registering multiple children,
be sure to add both before "checking out" (i.e. paying as the final step in
your registration).
- Finally, you will be prompted to "complete
checkout", which will prompt you for payment information.
6. Get familiar with
Sunnyvale Little League by browsing the other pages within our website. You
