AAA & Majors is an all player pitch division and is drafted to a team based on assessment selections. Age group is 9, 10, 11, 12. Player’s league age 12 may be waivered into the AAA division, but only at the discretion of the VALL player agent, with signed approval by the VALL President and the Little League District Administrator. A league age 12 year old player who has been waivered will NOT be allowed to pitch at this level per Little League Rules.
NO COACH OR BUDDY REQUESTS ARE ALLOWED IN AAA/MAJORS.

**Your player must attend at least ONE assessment in order to be drafted for the 2026 season. If you do not participate in the assessments you are NOT eligible for the Major Division and will not be eligible for All Stars. Your player will be placed in the AAA draft pool, unless they are 12yrs old. If 12yrs old, they will be placed on the Majors Division waitlist.**
Following the assessments, the team managers will draft the teams. Teams are formed solely on the managers’ selections of players they wish to draft for their team based on their team’s needs. Each player selected to a Major team is titled/vested (will remain on that team from year to year), until he/she becomes too old for that division. All 12 year olds must be drafted on Major teams unless a waiver is submitted AND signed prior to the draft and is on file with the VALL player agent.
The draft takes place confidentially each year and team managers take turns picking players until their allotted slots are filled. Players not selected for a Majors team are eligible for the AAA division draft.
