RL3 Baseball is a youth organization affiliated with Little League International. Our boundary generally include players that reside or go to school within Redford Twp., the City of Livonia or the parts of Westland, Garden City and Dearborn Heights that fall within our boundaries. We accept baseball ages from 4 to 16 yrs old. All players must present a birth certificate and proof of residency/school form. All players must complete a concussion safety awareness and medical release form. Regular registration includes a uniform, a 10-15 game season, beginning of the year parade and end of the year family picnic. NOTE: Participation trophies will be handed out to tee ball and coach pitch divisions only. Championship trophies will be awarded to the winners of the other divisions.
All-Star opportunities available at end of season for an additional fee per player (ages 7+). A separate tryout process will determine selection to an All-Star team.
Each player is required to provide their own baseball cleats, baseball glove and protective equipment (ie. protective cup for boys). RL3 will provide team helmets and bats. Any personal bats purchased for play, must have the "USA baseball" stamp on the side. All other affiliations (USSSA etc.) are not eligible for use in the lower divisions. BBCOR bats are permitted in our Intermediate/ Junior/divisions and required for Seniors (please see little league website for bat regulations).
Volunteers are welcomed and appreciated. All adults must complete a volunteer application (requiring social security number) and pass a background check prior to contact with players. Contact
