Those Registering for Softball: The registration page will say you are outside of our boundary, but YOU CAN STILL REGISTER. Please continue with the registration process and as long as you answer all questions and upload all documents, you will be able to register.
Welcome to the Spring 2023 Season at San Jose American Little League (SJALL). Spring season runs from March through May, with teams forming (and some starting practices) in February. The season can extend into June if a team makes TOCs, and into July (and even beyond, if they keep winning) for those players who make all-stars. Practice days and times vary and are not set until teams are formed, but typically T-ball practices once a week, with one game per week as well, while the Majors teams will typically practice 3 times per week with up to 2 games as well. A, AA, and AAA fall in between, with A being closer to T-ball, and AAA being closer to Majors.
Spring season requires players to live or attend school within the SJALL boundary. To see if SJALL is your local league, please check here. Those who register and are not within our boundary will not be able to be placed on a team. In addition to Baseball, SJALL is looking to expand into Softball this Spring. Softball programs will be open to a waitlist only to determine if we will have enough players to form a team. If not enough participants sign up to form a team, players will be referred to a different softball league or they will be able to sign up for one of the baseball programs at SJALL.
PLEASE NOTE: Since Softball is a new program for SJALL and our boundaries have not yet been updated, our registration system will say players are not within our boundary. Please continue with the registration process and as long as you answer all questions and upload all documents, you will be able to register.
