Little League’s second season gives leagues a great opportunity to lengthen their season and provide additional training and development opportunities to players of all ages. A second season program may be operated any time after the conclusion of the regular season and continue into early winter.
Several goals should be common to any league operating a second season program which include:
- Providing additional playing opportunities to any interested players in the league regardless of ability
- Recruiting new players, volunteers and sponsors to the Little League program
- Introducing new divisions of play within the league.
- Providing an additional opportunity for players to transition to the next level to help retain more players.
- Providing additional training and development opportunities for all players in the league.
