Why does Minors use a draft?
- It’s required by Little League International for competitive divisions.
- It creates fair, balanced teams and more exciting games.
- It helps every player grow — new teammates, new coaches, new roles.
- It prevents teams from becoming stacked or uneven.
- It encourages leadership and confidence in developing players.
We know it’s a change from Tee Ball and Coach Pitch, but this is an important step in your player’s
baseball journey. The draft gives every child the chance to grow, compete, and enjoy a fun, fair season.
