CHARTER

• You may charter one, two or all divisions: Cal Ripken, Babe Ruth, and Babe Ruth Senior Baseball, and Babe Ruth Softball. You may all join together in one league, or remain as separate individual leagues. The choice is yours.
• If a League has more than 10 teams in any one tournament division age group, the league would establish separate divisions, however all under the same charter. Babe Ruth does not insist that you split off to separate charters.
• The structure and method for establishing your Board of Directors is strictly up to the local league.

• All baseball divisions have some form of District, State, Regional and World Series play available for the 10-year-olds, 12-year-olds, 13-year-olds, 14-year-olds, 13-15-year-olds, 16-year-olds and 16-18-year-olds. There are also invitational tournaments for the Cal Ripken Leagues up to Regional tournament play for the 9-year-olds and 11-year-olds.

• Generally, the tournament season runs through the month of July with World Series events in August.
• World Series events are fully paid by Babe Ruth League, Inc.
