In June, at the conclusion of the regular season, All Star
teams are chosen for each of the levels: Senior Major Baseball, Junior Softball,
Junior Baseball, Junior Softball, Major Baseball & Major Softball, 9-10 Year Old
Baseball and 9-10 Year Old Softball to represent our league in the Little League
Baseball and Softball® Tournaments. This is a
very difficult task as there are only 12-14 players per team. The teams are
introduced at our Little League® Picnic at the
end of our regular season.
The first stop on this road for each of our teams is the
District 10 Championship Tournament. Our District's Champions continue their
journey at the State Championship Tournaments. For more tournament information,
please visit
District 10's Tournament pages and
Little
League Baseball® web sites.
