Majors Division (League Age 9-12)
What: Majors is the highest division of McIntire Little League. Majors is a highly competitive baseball division where teams compete in a 18-20-game regular season to win the League Championship. The League Champion advances to represent McIntire in the Charlottesville City Championship Tournament.
When and Where: The Majors season runs from late February through early June. Parents should expect Majors teams to have 2 games each week with an additional 2 practice per week. Prior to games starting, Majors teams practice 3-4 times per week. Fall Majors runs from early September through the end of October with one game and one practice per week. All games will be held at McIntire Park with occasional practices held at various other baseball fields in the Charlottesville area.
Who: The Majors division is designed primarily for league age 10-12 players (generally 4th-6th graders). The division could be appropriate for highly skilled league age 9 players (generally 3rd graders). All players interested in Majors, excluding Majors players, are required to attend a Majors try out in February. Players drafted by a Majors manager will be on that Majors team for as long as they play in McIntire Little League. Due to the draft process, the league does not consider teammate requests for the Majors division.
Majors Try Outs: All players interested in playing in the Majors division must attend try outs in late February (Feb 22-24). All players that want to be considered for the Majors draft must attend one of these try out sessions. Please sign up for our newsletter or continue to check back to our website for more details.
