Registration for the spring 2020 season is now open!
The cost is $125 for the first player in a family, $85 for
the second, and $70 for each additional child. There is an additional $40
deposit per family that will be returned after one adult in the family works for
two hours at the Field Cleanup Day to be held this spring.
An early-bird registration discount of $15/player is available through January 13th.
We will once again use chocolate bar sales as a fundraiser
this year. During registration you will be asked to acknowledge your
understanding of the policy and will be provided the opportunity to opt-out of selling chocolate bars.
If you prefer not to sell chocolate bars, you can choose to
opt out. In this case, instead of purchasing chocolate bars for $60 and getting
your money back by selling them, you pay a fee of $50.
Chocolate bars can be picked up at one of the live registration events to be held this spring. If you cannot pick up during this time, please contact the board president at [email protected] to schedule a time.
Little League International provides guidance on membership
and voting regulations. A nominal fee is added for those who would like to be a voting member of the Altamont
General Membership (which is not the same as being a Board Member). This will add $5 to your order
regardless of the number of children being registered. We will hold at least
one General Membership meeting in the fall to handle a variety of matters
related to the league. Attendance at these meetings will be mandatory as we
need to get a quorum to hold votes.
When you begin the registration process, you will be
presented with a description of the different divisions. These descriptions are also available on the Available Programs page here. Click on the "Show Details" option for each division to see a brief description.
Players in baseball
Rookies I, Rookies II, Minors, and Majors will also need to attend a player
evaluation session. Two sessions will be held this spring. League
representatives will evaluate the players to help ensure they are placed in a
division appropriate for their skill level. For Minors and Majors, these sessions
also serve as evaluation opportunities for the managers, as drafts are used to
determine teams in these divisions.
For softball, we are still working to determine when player
evaluations will occur. This is used to ensure that girls are placed in a
division appropriate for their skill level.
Teammate and manager requests can be made for players in Tee
Ball, Rookies I, and Rookies II only. Teams in higher divisions are determined
via a draft. To make a request, the following options are presented during
registration:
Teammate request (not guaranteed and only available
for Tee-ball and Rookies):
Coach request (not guaranteed and only available for
Tee-ball and Rookies):
Hope Christian teams may be available for Tee-Ball, Rookies
I, and Rookies II baseball divisions. To request your player be placed on a
Hope Christian team, answer Yes to the following question during registration:
Would you like this player to be placed on a Hope
Christian Elementary School team (not guaranteed and only available for
Tee-ball and Rookies):
The availability of Hope Christian teams is dependent upon manager availability for these teams.
Season start and end dates have not yet been determined.
