and the Challenger Division®.
We're hoping to develop teams in Senior and Big League levels in both Softball and Baseball in the next few years!
Little League is still very 'young' here - having chartered the first-ever Little League in Lane County in January 2001 !
If you don't know what Little League's "Challenger Division®" is, check the Link in the directory!
Our "District" organization is chartered with Little League and registered as a non-profit in Oregon as well as affiliated with the Federal Tax Exempt group for Little League Baseball and Softball, Inc.
Our "young and developing" district currently has 6 leagues - including the addition of a breakout for "Bethel School District boundaries" as we moved into the 2008 Season!
SAFETY & WEATHER!
Local Leagues are looking toward post-season All Star Tournaments! As of this date, it 'looks' like District 9 will have representation in:
9 & 10 yr old Baseball, 10 & 11 yr old Baseball, Little League Baseball, Junior League Baseball, 9 & 10 yr old Girls' Softball, Little League Softball, Junior League Softball
Note for any with questions: 9 & 10 and 10 & 11 yr old team players may be selected from regular season Minor and/or Major teams. These divisions only advance through District tournament to State Tournaments. Little League level teams must be league ages 11 or 12 and must be selected from regular season Major teams. Junior League teams must be league ages 12, 13, or 14, and must be selected from regular season Junior teams. Little League and Junior League teams winning at District, advance to State tournaments. Winners from State advance to Regionals. Winners at Regionals advance to World Series!
District 9 is hosting the 9 & 10 yr old Baseball State Tournament for 2008. Projected dates are July 12th-19th; and the site: Guy Lee Fields. This is the 'grand finale' for these teams since it is as far as they can advance so we're hoping to give them a really good time! Eight teams from around the state will join the District 9 team as they all converge on the Springfield/Eugene area!
If you are looking for information specific to one of our chartered Little Leagues, click on the League Name below or on the "Our Leagues" in the directory.
Each league's website generally will provide 'league-specific' dates, events, and contact information'.
At registration, the league representative must view an original or certified copy of a government-issued birth certificate to certify the child's 'age', plus three varied proof of residence documents to show the child legally resides within the boundaries of the league. Common documents are: one drivers' license, one vehicle registration, one utility bill - each showing the address that is a 'legal residence' for the child. (*multiple utility bills = 1 proof of residence document)

"Our" Regional Headquarters is Western Regional on Little League Drive
Many leagues have their own 'site' and each has its own "personality!"
