Games/Schedules
1. When does the season start?
A. Our 2020 Spring season will begin in early March.
2. How many games a week do we play?
A. There will be 2 games and 1 practice per week. 1 game during the week and 1 Saturday game.
3. When does the season end?
A. The Regular Spring Season ends at the end of May.
4. When will I know what day(s) my child will be playing on and their teams schedule?
A. The number of teams is directly related to the final registration numbers in each age group. Schedules can not be determined until registrations have concluded and teams have been drafted. Once these two items have taken place it will take a couple of weeks to put together the schedule. Once it has been completed, it will be provided to your manager and posted on our webpage under 'Schedules'.
5. Where are games played?A. Most of our games are played at Los Alamos Hills Sports Park. For the Major division and below, some games may be played at Hunt Park. For Intermediate and above some inter league games may be needed. These games would require some travel to neighboring cities.
Los Alamos Hills Sports Park
Hunt Park
6. When and where are practices scheduled?
A. MNLL is allocated several locations within the city limits. Los Alamos may be used before the season starts but once games begin the fields there are used for game purposes. Team managers are given a pool of days and times to choose their team practices and generally pick what best suits their team. Extra practices are held at the managers discretion and only if available field space.
7. If it rains, how will I know if the games have been cancelled?
A. The City of Murrieta determines when fields will be closed due to the weather. Once MNLL has been notified of field closures we immediately update the website and post it on our Facebook page as well as send an email to all managers. Field status will remain the same until otherwise notified.
8. Does my child have to try out?
A. Players do not "try-out". Players are " evaluated" Every player is placed or drafted on a team. All players league age 7 and above will attend one of the player evaluation of two sessions (times will be released in January) at Hunt Park to determine the division the player will be drafted in. Failure to attend the player evaluation session will result in the player being a "Hat Pick" at the draft or possibly placed in a division.
9. Can I request for my child to be on the same team as his/her friend? A. We cannot guarantee your child will be on the same team as his or her friend. Requests are looked into for all players in Tball and Single A.
No requests are filled in drafted divisions of Double A and above
10. What equipment will the league provide and what should I purchase for my son/daughter? A. The league provides most of the necessary equipment all players receive Jersey, Team hat, Belt, Socks.
