- BASEBALL “DISTRICT” TEAMS: For 2026 WMLL will form & field baseball “District” teams at the Little League Age 10, 11, 12, Junior & Senior levels to prepare for & compete in the official Little League (District / State / Regional / World Series) tournament series.
- The“District” teams will play in 1 other tournament (besides the official Little League tournament series).
- TRADITIONAL TOURNAMENT TEAMS: The WMLL Board may elect to field a traditional baseball or softball tournament team for at any age level for which either a Thunder team does not exist or there is sufficient non-Thunder player & coach interest to do so.
- There are, however, no guarantees that a traditional “all star” tournament team will be formed at any age level besides the LL age 10, 11, 12, 14 & 16 levels in baseball for play in the official Little League tournament series.
- WEST MADISON TRAVEL TEAMS (THUNDER): The West Madison Travel Team (WMTT) or “Thunder” is a program that started in 2022 for WMLL players & families looking for additional opportunities for baseball & softball beyond WMLL’s current spring/summer & fall seasons of play.
- Thunder teams are intended as an expansion of WMLL’s traditional “all star” tournament teams – Thunder teams will provide significantly more development/practice time and more tournament play than WMLL’s traditional “all star” tournament teams. The WMTT season begins with indoor winter practice sessions followed by spring/summer practices & tournament play.
