Virtual Rules Clinics

The final three of Little League® Baseball and Softball rules webinars are scheduled for April 11, 18, and 25. These online discussions are part of Little League’s continuing efforts to educate by offering virtual training and explanation of each of the nine official playing rules found in the Little League rulebooks. These webinars will be presented on the Zoom video meeting platform.

Instructors from several of Little League’s Region Centers will moderate these free-to-access presentations that are expected to be provided in 60-minute sessions. We also encourage you to download the Little League Rulebook App (LittleLeague.org/RulebookApp) and review the materials available at LittleLeague.org/Rules.
