I don't live in Coconut Creek, can I play in your League?
Coconut Creek Little League serves the communities of Coconut Creek & Margate.  Little League Regulations require that only players that reside within a League's boundaries can participate in that League.  The only exception to this rule if a participant petitions for a written waiver from Little League headquarters due to hardships or other claims under Regulation II of the Little League Handbook.

Players who live within the league boundaries and move out of the area may continue to play in the local League, as well as any of their siblings, for the remainder of their youth league career.   Any player who qualifies under this provision and elects not to participate for a playing season is no longer eligible to be retained for subsequent seasons.

The City of Coconut Creek requires all eligible non-residents to purchase a Youth Sports Card . Purchase of a youth Sports Card does excuse a participant from meeting the League residency requirements.

Can my child play with his friend or for a certain coach?
Players in non-competitive Divisions such as Coach Pitch & T-ball for both Baseball and Softball do not have tryouts and are randomly selected for teams by that Divisions Coordinator.  In these divisions players may request to be placed with a particular coach or player.  The Division Coordinator will do his best to honor placement requests, but the league cannot guarantee any placement requests except for siblings in the same age group.  Please notate any placement requests on players season application or contact the League Player Agent.

Players in competitive divisions - Minor League and above, in both Baseball & Girl's Softball are required to participate in player evaluations that will assist team managers in their selections of teams.  Because all players are selected via the draft, no player placement requests can be honored for these divisions except for same age siblings.

 How long does the season last?
The League regular season will begin with practices starting in early February.  Games begin in Early March and continue through mid- May.  Exceptional teams and players may also be asked to participate in District tournaments. The District Strong team tournaments are held from early to mid June.  All Star Tournaments begin in Early July and potentially run through mid- August.  Registration for our spring season begins in November.
 

When will my Child's games & practices be?
Your child should be advised of their practice schedule once your contacted by your coach.  As a general rule all teams will have two practices per week prior to the start of games.  One will be on a week night an one on Saturdays. 

After games begin players in non-competitive divisions such as T-ball & Coach Pitch will have one practice and one game a week.  One meeting will be on a week night and one will be on a Saturday, it varies by availability on whether a game or practice is played on a Saturday, but once set it should remain that way for the entire season.  Weeknight games and practices can be held any day between Monday and Friday.  Due to the size of these divisions Saturday games and practices are usually scheduled from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm.

Competitive division teams Minors and above will meet three times a week once games begin.  One Practice during the week and a game on Saturday and one during the week, weeknight games are usually played Monday through Thursday.  Saturday game times vary based on the size of the Divisions.
