Portsmouth Little League is structured with three age-based divisions as well as a Challenger (adaptive) division. Each division has an assigned home field, game schedule and practice schedule.

The age-based divisions include:
- 11/12 year-olds at Hislop Field
- 8/9/10 year-olds at Plains Field
- 6/7/8 year-olds at Central Field
Players aged eight may participate in either our coach pitch or player pitch division based on past play in coach pitch and readiness.

Your player's league age is determined by the Little League Baseball® Age Chart.  Click here for the 2024 chart. Click here for an interactive calculator.  The age determination date for Little League Baseball® is the actual age of a child on August 31 of the current year.  

All children who reside in the City of Portsmouth, Town of Greenland, Town of Stratham, or Town of Newington are eligible to play in our program. All registered players are placed on teams after a "tryout" date in March.  Once the season begins, new players may be added on a space-available basis but only until the round-robin level of play begins in late May.

Registration is online and live on December 1.  PLL advertises registration dates on our website, in the local newspaper, and (when possible) through school email distribution lists. Tryouts are held in March; practices begin after tryouts and continue through Opening Day when game play starts.  Practices and games continue through mid-June, and teams may practice/play anywhere between three and six times per week based on the division of play.

Portsmouth Little League is part of New Hampshire District 2.  NH District 2 strives to deliver an unforgettable experience while providing a safe and competitive environment for all of our members. Little League believes in the power of youth baseball and softball to teach life lessons that build stronger individuals and communities. Click here for the NH District 2 Web site.
