Waivers

Does your player need a waiver to play NBLL?

Spring Season NOTE: NO WAIVER is necessary If you have a player between the league ages of 4-7 yrs old. As of the 2025 Spring Season, a Waiver is NOT required, you may play in the league of your choice. If the player has older siblings they may also follow to your league of choice with NO Waiver requirements and all players will have full eligibility in the league of your choice. You must register all Players at the same time, starting with your youngest so that the older siblings are linked to your younger player in the registration system.

Summer & Fall Ball Season NOTE: Waivers only apply to the Spring Season. NO Waivers are necessary for Summer or Fall Ball Season. Summer and Fall Ball Season is open to everyone, no matter what league boundary you live or go to school in.

If your player is a NBLL Player that has moved out of the NBLL boundary or have moved schools out of the NBLL boundary and wish to continue playing NBLL, this is the waiver you need to fill out. Once you have filled it out email it to [email protected]

OUT OF BOUNDARY PLAYERS that have never lived or gone to school within the NBLL boundaries and are requesting to play NBLL instead of their home league will require a LL Charter Committee Waiver Request. This could be a temporary or permanent waiver for the entire little league career of the player. The player may request Full Eligibility with NBLL which will allow the player to be considered for a NBLL All Stars roster spot, should the player wish to do so.
