Do teams travel?
Yes. Most teams travel within 30 minutes of our home fields. Junior and Senior teams may travel farther.
Do parents have to volunteer or fundraise?
Volunteering and fundraising are not required, but always appreciated. Middletown Little League is a 100% volunteer-run organization, and fundraising directly supports our players and fields.
Please note- Parent/Guardian/Siblings/Aunt/Uncles/Cousins/Friends are NOT permitted to help on the fields unless they have completed the Volunteer application, a background check and the mandatory Abuse Awareness course from Little League International. This is for the safety of all players.
