KAU Little League offers a great youth sports opportunity for our local community. KAU is open to players who reside in or attend public or private school within the geographic boundaries of both Unionville-Chadds Ford and Kennett Consolidated School Districts. Our programs are designed for players of all skill levels and age groups. Our priority is to develop fundamental baseball and softball skills and outstanding sportsmanship in our players.  

Please Note: We rely on the Little League "league age" for determination of division age ranges. For the Fall season, we are basing this on the 2024 age chart (meaning players typically "play up" so to prepare for next spring). You can reference the Little League 2024 Baseball Age Chart HERE. For example, your actual age may be 8 but your league age could be 9. Each team will have players that are similar in age.  Please see division descriptions below for age ranges.

* Unless otherwise noted, fall format for all divisions typically includes 2 events per week. Weekdays will consist of either a game or practice, and Saturdays will be a game. Tee Ball is Saturday-only. The season will begin on or about September 5 and end October 28.

- Tee Ball: For children ages 4-5. Players must be 4 years old by September 1, 2023. If a player has already played a previous season of tee ball and plans to play machine pitch next spring, it is advised to play up in the Farm Division. Our fall tee ball program will practice and/or play on Saturday's only on our Tee Ball Field (Side Field).

- Farm Baseball: For children ages 6-7, this is a machine pitch division and played on 46'/60' field dimensions.

- Rookies Baseball: For children ages 7-8, this is a kid / coach pitch division and played on 46'/60' field dimensions. Players will be introduced to pitching. The pitching distance will be adjusted to accommodate the players' ability. Coach pitch will be implemented when 4 balls are thrown to a batter to encourage hitting and more action in the field.

- Minors Baseball: For children ages 9-10, this is a full kid pitch division and played on 46'/60' field dimensions.

- Intermediate Baseball: For children ages 11-13, this is a full kid pitch division and played on 50'/70' field dimensions. 

- Junior/Senior Divisions: For children ages 13-16, this division plays on our 90' field dimensions at our NVF Field.

KAU reserves the right to alter the division structure for ages 4-10 based on registration numbers and skill level. Divisions will be created to ensure the best playing experience for each participant and to make balanced teams.
