MAJORS (KID PITCH; 11-12 YRS OLD; 5th and 6th grade)

The focus in WMLL majors is still developmental in nature with an emphasis on teamwork and fostering a positive atmosphere among players and coaches. This is a player pitch division at 46' Pitching and 60' base paths. Teams consist of 11-12 players (9 are used on defense). This level of baseball is geared towards 5th and 6th graders. See the age chart below; all skill levels are welcome.

Spring Season:
We play with other local communities such as Germantown, West Allis, Menomonee Falls, and other District 1 leagues to build our division. This division has the opportunity to make a run at the Little League World Series, last season Shorewood LL represented Wisconsin in pool play for the Little League World Series.

Players are drafted by managers at the spring player draft in March. Practices start in March at our indoor facility (the Hanger) and will transition to the outdoor fields as weather permits. Games are 2 hours in length or 6 complete innings and are played at Madison Park, in Wauwatosa. Expect to play 12-16 games, including an annual end of year district tournament in July. See Spring Season program page for more details.
