Evaluations: All players who register for the Minor, Major and Junior/ Senior divisions for both baseball and softball will be evaluated and placed on a team. Evaluation sessions are used to assess the skills of each player and to distribute the varying skills to each team as evenly as possible. No players will be refused an assignment to a team, regardless of skill level. Following the evaluations, managers will “draft” players onto the various teams to equalize the level of play as best as possible. Please keep in mind that it is not a perfect science. We will do our best to spread talent out evenly to allow for competitive play, keeping in mind this is a recreational league.
The evaluation schedule and location will be announced at a later date.
Registration Fees: Franklin Little League is one of the most affordable baseball and softball leagues in Southeastern Wisconsin. We are a non-profit organization with a volunteer staff. All fees noted above include a shirt/jersey, cap/visor and pants for the Minor, Major, Junior Intermediate, and Senior divisions. Tee-Ball and Rookie League players will receive a shirt and cap.
Multi-Player Discount: Families with multiple registrations made online at the same time in the Tee-Ball, Minor, Major, and Junior Divisions will receive a $25.00 discount for the second child registered and a $50.00 discount for the third child registered. Important: To receive these discounts, all children must be registered online at the same time.

Volunteer Requirements & Refundable Volunteer Fee
Franklin Little League has a policy for all divisions (except for Challenger) that each family must pay a single $50.00 volunteer fee per family plus a $50.00 volunteer fee per player at the beginning of the season which will be refunded at the end of the season if the family performs their volunteer responsibilities. These fees are in addition to your registration fees. If each family does its part, everyone benefits! It is required that each family perform 4 hours of volunteer service per registered player during the season. Volunteer opportunities include Field Fix-Up Day, Annual Picnic, All-Star tournament support, or the ever-popular FLL concession stand. Also, team managers and up to 2 rostered coaches will receive full volunteer time credit.
Fundraising
FLL will be conducting a mandatory Fundraiser Raffle this season! There will be a $50 Fundraising fee per player (Maximum of 2 per family) - each Player will recieve 5 raffle tickets worth $10 each that they can sell and make their money back, or keep for personal use. We will be holding the raffle before the start of the 2022 season. There will be 5 cash prizes ($1000, $500, $350, $250, and $150). You will be notified as soon as the raffle tickets are avaialable for pick up.
RefundsFor Little League regular season and fall ball season registrations: Prior to the close of the registration period – 100% of the registration fees paid will be refunded less a $10 administration fee. After the close of the registration period until the first scheduled game – 50% of the registration fees paid will be refunded less the Fundraising fee. After the first scheduled game – no refunds will be given. In the event of a medically documented injury during the season, a written refund request can be made to the Franklin Little League Board. Those requests will be reviewed at the next scheduled Board Meeting and determined on a case-by-case basis. Several factors will be taken into account in determining the amount of the refund permitted, if any, but will not exceed 50% of the registration fees paid.
Volunteer fees for players who do not withdraw from the league will be refunded only at end of season if the family volunteer responsibility has been fulfilled.
