(3) Player is League Age 7 or Younger: For baseball players that will be 7 years old or younger on August 31, 2025 and softball players that will be 7 years old or younger on December 31, 2024, Little League has adopted new eligibility rules starting in the Spring 2025 season.* Specifically, these players may choose to play with any little league without regard for residence or school-related eligibility requirements. See more on this new rule here. Older siblings of players league age 7 or younger may follow their sibling to Cap City; however, the younger sibling must continue to play with Cap City in order for the older sibling to maintain eligibility. Contact the Registration Coordinator with questions about this type of eligibility.
*Since Cap City will use the 2025 age chart during the Fall 2024 season and treats the Fall season as developmental lead-up to the Spring season, we are applying these rules starting Fall 2024.
Waiver Requests: If a prospective player does not meet one of the three (3) eligibility requirements listed above and has never met one of those requirements (i.e., wasn't previously eligible to play with Cap City), they most likely cannot play with Cap City. If you have questions about whether there are grounds for a waiver for your player, please contact Cap City's Registration Coordinator. Cap City will determine, in compliance with Little League International guidelines, whether to submit a waiver request to the District Administrator or Little League International for approval. Cap City only submits waivers in extremely limited circumstances.
