Davis Little League endorses the National Little League philosophy, and has made only slight modifications to some of the playing rules in an attempt to enhance the playing experience for our children. The following is an excerpt from the National Little League organization:

"Little League Baseball is a program of service to youth. It is geared to provide an outlet of healthful activity and training under good leadership in the atmosphere of wholesome community participation. The movement is dedicated to helping children become good and decent citizens. It strives to inspire them with a goal and to enrich their lives toward the day when they must take their places in the world. It establishes for them rudiments of teamwork and fair play."

• American League
• National League

The American and National Leagues are for players between the ages of 5-12. In general, the American league boundaries are East and South Davis, while the National league consists of North and West Davis. The American and National Leagues each consist of the following 3 divisions:

• Major Division
• Minor Division
• T-Ball

Boundaries
Davis Little League boundaries are posted in the office located at the Little League Complex. Player candidates who reside within the approved boundaries are eligible to participate in Davis Little League's youth baseball programs. Davis Little League boundaries, which are meant to include areas beyond the Davis Joint Unified School district boundaries, can be summarized as:

• Beginning at the Yolo Causeway (at the southeast corner of our boundaries) those addresses BETWEEN, but NOT on, Tremont Road and then Putah Creek (the southern border line) and Road 27 (the northern border line) AND from the Yolo Causeway westward to, and including, those addresses on County Road 95.

Eligibility
Davis Little League is open to all children between the ages of 5 and 12. A player's age is based on the National Little League age cutoff. The league is open to players who live within the established physical boundaries, subject to adherence to established rules and required parental support. In addition, player candidates must have parental or legal guardian consent.

Operations
Davis Little League is an all-volunteer league. Many parents devote their personal time to support and operate the league. Help is always needed - if you are interested in volunteering some time, please read more on the volunteering section.
