Registration FAQs

Common registration questions :

  • What items will my player require:

    During the Spring and Summer seasons players will be provided with a uniform which includes a jersey, pants, and belt. These will need to be returned at the end of the season. In addition, a baseball cap and socks will be provided and can be kept by the player. Players should have their own glove, NOCSAE-certified batting helmet, appropriate baseball shoes, and jock/jill. Bats are not required as the league will provide bats for teams to use. If a player decides to bring their own bat please ensure that it is a legal bat for use in Little League baseball. These requirements change regularly so please verify before purchasing any.

  • When does the season run?

    • Spring Season - May to end of June
    • Summer Season - July to end of August
    • Fall Ball ( when offered) September to early October
    • Girls Baseball Season - May to end of July

  • My player is close to the age bracket, can they play up in age bracket?

    Little League does not allow for players to play in different age brackets from those that are posted.

  • Can my player submit a friend request?

    East Nepean Little League does not guarantee friend requests. While we understand that playing with friends adds to the experience, our primary focus is the safety of all players, and players often sort into different levels. In addition, the balancing of teams is important to ensure all teams are competitive. A Director of a division may consider a friend request after the above considerations are reviewed but is not required to accommodate them.

  • The player lives out of boundaries, can they still play in East Nepean?

    A player is required to play in the league that is identified by the Little League finder. Which league you should register in can be found here: https://www.littleleague.org/play-little-league/league-finder/


    There are some exceptions to league boundaries, please contact the Registrar if you aren't certain if your player is eligible.

  • How do I know which division my player should register in:

    The ENLL registration system will automatically register you to the correct division based on the player's birth date. For an overview of Little League age charts and for more information on confirmation of age please see : https://www.littleleague.org/play-little-league/determine-league-age/

  • Does my child have to participate in the sortouts?

    Sortouts are fundamental part of the Spring season. This allows Directors and Coaches to assess players and to ensure they are placed in the appropriate level of play for their skill level. As a result all players are encouraged to make best efforts to attend the sort out process.

  • What happens if I miss sort outs?

    If a player does need to miss sort outs the Director will communicate with individual families to make possible other arrangements on a set makeup day or will review prior playing history (if available).

  • Can I register for all baseball offerings in a seasons all at once (spring, summer and fall)?

    ENLL only allows for registration for specific sessions, one at a time. Spring registration generally is open by mid-January, Summer by mid-May and Fall by early August. Please watch your email, follow us on social media, or check regularly on our website for updates and announcements

  • What days of the week will my child play?

    ENLL does not receive field permits from the City of Ottawa until the start of May. This prevents us from releasing the season schedule in advance. Depending on the program that your player is participating in the weekly schedule may vary:


    • Co-Ed Little League: Two games per week on weeknights and practices are scheduled at the discretion of the Coach. Games that are cancelled will be rescheduled for the next available date which can include weekends.
    • Girls Baseball: Games take place on Sundays and practices are scheduled at the discretion of the Coach. Games that are cancelled will be rescheduled for the next available date which can include weeknights.
    • Rally Cap: Sessions take place on specific weeknights each week. 

  • Are games rescheduled?

    A game can be rescheduled for a variety of reasons with weather being the primary one. ENLL will make best efforts to reschedule any game that is cancelled within the time frame of the season but cannot guarantee that it will be on the same day of the week or time (ie., a rescheduled Tuesday 6pm game could be rescheduled for a Saturday at 10am).
