NEW PLAYERS
If your child is playing in one of our programs for the first time, you must email a copy of his/her birth certificate to Westport Little League. In addition, if this is the first time a member of your family is participating in one of our programs, you must also email proof of residency (such as a utility or phone bill).
Please email these two items to westportball@aol.com.
Your child cannot participate without first meeting these requirements.
FINANCIAL AID
If participation of your child(ren) in Little League presents a financial hardship for your family, you may apply for financial aid through Town of Westport Youth Services. If you wish to apply, please complete the online registration and select the financial aid option. Your registration with WLLSB will not be deleted for non-payment. Please contact adaugelli@westportct.gov to apply.
PLAYER/COACH REQUESTS
WLLSB does our best to form balanced teams. For Instructional through AA, teams generally include players from the same elementary school. The Commissioners will do their best to accommodate team requests indicated in registration when populating teams.
All coaches will be required to pass a background check, have a valid National Youth Sports Coaches Association (NYSCA) membership and undergo mandatory concussion training prior to the start of the season.
VOLUNTEER COACHES
Our programs could not exist without parent coaches who generously volunteer their time. For parents who would like to volunteer as a head coach or an assistant coach, please check the appropriate box on your child’s registration form. Once teams are announced, the manager may subsequently add another (league-approved) assistant coach(es) who is a parent of a player on the team's roster.
