Residence Eligibility Requirements
There are two (2) Little Leagues in the City of San Ramon: Canyon Creek Little League (CCLL) and San Ramon Little League (SRLL).
Each local Little League determines the actual geographic boundaries of the area from within which it shall select players. These boundaries are described in detail and shown on a map and dated when making application for a Little League charter.
Players will be eligible to play with that league only if they reside within the boundaries provided to and approved by Little League Baseball, Incorporated. A player will be deemed to reside within the league boundaries if:
A. His/her parents are living together and are residing within such league boundaries,
OR;
B. Either of the player’s parents (or his/her court-appointed legal guardian) reside within such boundaries. It is unacceptable if a parent moves into a league’s boundaries for the purpose of qualifying for tournament play. “Residence,” “reside” and “residing” refers to a place of bona fide continuous habitation. A place of residence once established shall not be considered changed unless the parents, parent or guardian makes a bona fide change of residence.
Residence shall be established and supported by documents from THREE OR MORE of the following categories to determine residency of such parent(s) or guardian:
-
Driver’s License
-
Voter’s Registration
-
School records
-
Welfare/child care records
-
Federal records
-
State records
-
Local (municipal) records
-
Support payment records
-
Homeowner or tenant records
-
Utility bills (i.e., gas, electric, water/sewer, phone, mobile phone, heating, waste disposal)
-
Financial (loan, credit, investments, etc.) records
-
Insurance documents
-
Medical records
-
Military records
-
Internet, cable or satellite records
- Vehicle records
NOTE: Example – Three utility bills (three items from No. 10 above) constitute only ONE document.
Players and their parents/guardians are advised that a false statement of residence may lead to ineligibility to play Little League Baseball or Softball. Under NO circumstances does ANY person have the authority to grant a waiver that allows a child to play in a local Little League program IN ANY DIVISION, when that child does not qualify under these residency requirements.
** Regulation II (d) Form
The Board of Directors of the Local League, with the approval of the player involved, reserves the right to continue as a player, any individual (1) whose residence changes from within the boundary to outside the league’s boundary or (2) who lives outside the league’s boundaries because of a revision of such boundaries even if the child then resides in the territory of another league. Current Major League, Minor League, A-Ball or Tee Ball players or any sibling whose brother or sister met the criteria under II (d) at one time may be retained. Any player meeting (1) or (2) above may be retained for the remainder of his/her career, including Little League, Senior and Big League competition. NOTE: A player who qualifies under this regulation and elects not to participate for a playing season is not eligible to be retained for the subsequent season.
