We ardently believe that the baseball family includes the fans, coaches, administrators and youth players of the Babe Ruth League and at all levels in the many communities where our game is played and enjoyed. Major League Baseball commends all of Babe Ruth Baseball’s participants.”

ROB MANFRED Commissioner of Baseball

“Babe Ruth League is extremely grateful for the support Major League Baseball provides for all the young baseball and softball players of our country. I would also like to thank all the great volunteers in the Babe Ruth program. It is through their dedicated service to youth that Babe Ruth League is so successful.”

STEVEN TELLEFSEN President/CEO Babe Ruth League, Inc.

“It’s our goal that each youngster who plays in the Cal Ripken Baseball Division will not only learn the basics of the game, but will also experience the same level of excitement I felt every day when I put on my uniform and got ready to play. There’s nothing else like it!”

CAL RIPKEN, JR.

In Michael Jordan’s Words …“Even now, when people talk about my greatest thrill being the shot against Georgetown to win the NCAA title, I still think to myself that my greatest accomplishment really is the Most Valuable Player Award I got when my Babe Ruth League team won the state baseball championship.”

REGIONS OF BABE RUTH LEAGUE

This map illustrates the eight regions of Babe Ruth League, Inc. Each region is comprised of the state organizations.

The Local League Level

The foundation of the Babe Ruth program is the local league level. Each Cal Ripken Baseball, Babe Ruth Baseball, and Babe Ruth Softball league is organized within a community by a group of select people, who usually serve as a temporary Board until regular elections of officers can be held. State Commissioners help local leagues establish geographical boundaries—which are protected by Babe Ruth League, Inc.—from which to draw their players.

Babe Ruth local leagues operate with the spirit of democracy and with much autonomy. In addition, Babe Ruth League, Inc. provides materials to help leagues establish their own Constitution and By-Laws and plan meetings.

All league officers, managers, coaches, umpires and miscellaneous personnel should be volunteers from within the community and should be individuals who care about teaching the youth of their community the ideals of sportsmanship, fair play, respect for self and others and high morality.

The District Level

A District is an established area within a state that can consist of between five to ten leagues. A District Commissioner is a volunteer who operates the Babe Ruth program within each district according to the Babe Ruth Rules and Regulations, State’s Constitution and By-Laws and its policies.

The District Commissioner assists the local leagues whenever needed. He/she holds several meetings per year to keep his/her leagues updated on the special programs as well as possible policy and rule changes. The District Commissioner serves as the local league’s liaison with the State Commissioner.

Section 8 10

The State Level

The District Commissioner reports to the State Commissioner. Depending on its size and the population of its leagues, a state organization may consist of an entire state or a portion of a state. State Commissioners are volunteers who operate the Babe Ruth program within each state organization according to the Babe Ruth Rules and Regulations as well as any applicable State-level by-laws and policies.

The State Commissioner is responsible for:

• Assisting local league officials when needed or requested by District Commissioners.

• Holding elections for District Commissioners elected by the local leagues within the respective district.

• Holding several meetings per year, including an election meeting where each District Commissioner votes for the State Commissioner; a meeting devoted to league eligibility for tournament play, as well as a complete review of all Babe Ruth Rules and Regulations for local league and tournament play; and meetings to review the special programs offered by Babe Ruth International Headquarters to address any District concerns and review possible policy and rule changes.

• Operating State Tournaments and working through his/her District Commissioners to make certain all leagues are eligible for tournament play.

• Presenting to the Regional Commissioner (the next level) for review all District concerns within his/her state in order that the state’s recommendations are presented properly to Babe Ruth International Headquarters.

The Regional Level

The State Commissioner reports to the Regional Commissioner, of which there are eight. A regional organization consists of several states. A Regional Commissioner operates the Babe Ruth program

within each region according to the Babe Ruth Rules and Regulations and the program’s policies and procedures.

The Regional Commissioner is responsible for:

• Assisting local league officials when needed or requested by District or State Commissioners.

• Holding one or two workshops per year where the operations of the region and the Babe Ruth program are reviewed thoroughly.

• Operating and administering the Regional Tournaments in conjunction with his/her Assistant Regional Commissioners.

• Presenting to Babe Ruth International Headquarters (the next level) for review any regional concerns and subsequent action.

International Headquarters

Elected by the Board of Directors is the President/CEO of Babe Ruth League, Inc. who leads the program’s operation and administration. Full-time staff members (including the President/CEO) work with the program’s volunteer network of over one million individuals to provide the very best educational, sports experience possible for participants.

The International Headquarters for the administration of Babe Ruth League, Inc. is located in Mercer County, New Jersey.

The Board of Directors

At the top of the chain of command is the Babe Ruth League International Board of Directors, including the President/CEO who directs the affairs and policies of Babe Ruth League, Inc. The eight Regional Commissioners serve as Board Members, along with eight “at-large” members.

Born: February 6, 1895 in Baltimore, MD Died: August 16, 1948 in New York, NY Height: 6’2” Weight: 215 lbs. Threw and batted lefthanded Married Clair Merritt Hodgson, April 17, 1929

When Babe Ruth left the game of baseball, the New York Yankees retired his number 3. He had become a legend and no one else could ever take the great Bambino’s place.

Ruth grew up in St. Mary’s Industrial School

in Baltimore. Taught how to handle a needle and thread, he was supposed to be a tailor, but Brother Gilbert suspected otherwise.

In 1914, he was signed by the Minor League Baltimore Orioles and shortly moved on to the Boston Red Sox before settling in New York with the Yankees. In a few seasons, it became clear that Babe Ruth was the best lefthander in the American League. But his dazzling record as a pitcher was soon eclipsed by his spectacular slugging.

Ruth broke record after record, each time setting new ones only he could equal. During his 22 year career, the Sultan of Swat hit 714 home runs, plus an additional 15 in World Series competition.

Babe Ruth gave baseball dozens of new records; but more importantly, Babe gave the game the warmth and color of his own personality. The Bambino singlehandedly launched big-time baseball into a new era of glory.

CAL RIPKEN, JR. - 2007 NATIONAL BASEBALL HALL OF FAME INDUCTEECal played the game the way it was meant to be played – every day. He played a record 2,632 consecutive games, earning the nickname Iron Man. For this reason, fans and major leaguers from around the country admire and respect him. Cal, Jr. is one of just eight players in a history to amass more than 400 home runs and 3,000 hits. Selected to baseball’s All-Century team, this two-time Gold Glove winner and 8-time Silver Slugger Award Winner, was a terrific all-around player. Twice the American League’s Most Valuable Player, he and his fellow Oriole teammates made their hometown of Baltimore proud when they clinched the title of 1983 World Series Champions.

To top off a career that others can only dream about, on January 9, 2007, Ripken received the highest honor of recognition … election into the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

This award was established in 1991 to recognize and to pay tribute to an outstanding volunteer in the Babe Ruth Program. This award is made in honor of the late Vernon “Lefty” Gomez, a twenty-five year member of the Babe Ruth League, Inc. Board of Directors.

CAL RIPKEN DIVISION (4-12)

In April of 1987, Cal Ripken, Sr., Cal Ripken, Jr. and Bill Ripken took the field together—not as father and sons, but as manager and players. This was the culmination of a lifelong journey that took the Ripken family from the youth leagues to the major leagues. From the very beginning, it was evident that Cal, Jr. and Bill would follow in their father’s footsteps, always listening and learning while Cal, Sr. talked about the finer points of the game. Cal Ripken, Sr. was a father figure and mentor not only to his own sons, but to a multitude of players and coaches.

As a player, coach, and manager in the Baltimore Orioles organization for over 37 years, he will be forever recognized with developing and teaching the fundamentals of playing the game of baseball the right way—“The Ripken Way.”

Cal Ripken, Sr. passed on his ideals and passion to his sons: “The Ripken Way”. The approach combines developing and strengthening the fundamental skills of baseball and athletic conditioning with the equally important virtues of work ethic, practice and an understanding and love for the game. Cal Ripken, Jr. and Babe Ruth League have always shared a common vision: To provide every youngster the opportunity to play baseball and have fun. Teaching them to play the game “The Ripken Way” will assure accomplishment of this goal. In 2000, Babe Ruth League, Inc. and Cal Ripken, Jr. came together to introduce Cal Ripken Baseball, A Division of Babe Ruth League, Inc. for baseball players 4 through 12 years of age.

Dr. Bobby Brown, former President of the American League, with the help of Babe Ruth Baseball, established “Rookie Leagues”

throughout the nation in hope of getting more youngsters playing baseball.

Rookie League is designed for players seven through nine years old. A pitching machine is used to speed the games along using softer baseballs to help reduce the fear factor. There is a fourth outfielder and a fifth infielder and all twelve players on the roster are placed in the batting order. The games are six innings in length and are played on a standard youth field on sixty foot base lengths. The pitching machine is placed forty-six feet from home plate.

The program became part of the Cal Ripken Division in 1987 and has enjoyed steady growth.

The program gets high praise from coaches, players, parents and league officials. Accolades of “fantastic,” “it’s great fun,” “my kids enjoy it,” “players learn quicker,” “very few players quit” are heard around the ball fields of the Rookie League.

For further Rookie League information, contact Babe Ruth International Headquarters.

13-YEAR-OLD PREP LEAGUE

In an effort to encourage more participation in the game of baseball, the International Board of Babe Ruth League, Inc. approved at the beginning of the 1976 season the use of the Babe Ruth Baseball 13-Year-Old Prep League.

Under the Prep League rules, the team rosters must be comprised of all 13-year-old players and shall consist of no fewer than 12 players and no more than 15 players. In order for the Prep League to be accepted by Headquarters, the local parent program must be a chartered Babe Ruth Baseball 13-15 League.

Studies have shown that many young players lose interest in the game of baseball because of not getting a chance to play in games once selected for an organized team. In addition, it has been found that players have expressed fear in competing with 14- and 15-year-old players who have already experienced one to two years playing on the standard 90-foot diamond.

With the Babe Ruth Baseball Prep League, the 13-year-old player now has that chance to play with his peers, thus avoiding the possibility of his losing interest in playing baseball. Babe Ruth Baseball also features a 13-Year-Old World Series.

13-15 DIVISION

Babe Ruth League, the group for 13-14-15 year old players, was founded in 1951.

Each local league chartered is an organization with authority to administer its own program within the framework of the Rules and Regulations and guidance of Babe Ruth League, Inc. officials.

Each state, province or territory in the 13-15 division is operated by an elected State Commissioner, and in most states, there are District Commissioners who assist the State Commissioner with his many duties. (Some states, with approval from Headquarters, also receive the assistance of Area Commissioners).

In turn, the states are grouped into eight regions with a Regional Commissioner to oversee the Regional operation. These Regional

Commissioners also serve as members of the International Board of Directors of Babe Ruth League, Inc.

Teams from each league are eligible to enter tournament competition and move along the tournament trail to the championship tournament—the World Series.

16-YEAR-OLD PREP LEAGUE

Babe Ruth Baseball in its efforts to continue to provide an ongoing learning process for its players, enters the twenty-fifth year of a Prep Program for sixteen-year-olds.

Under the league rules, the team rosters must be comprised of all 16-year-old players and shall consist of no fewer than 12 players and no more than 18 players. In order for the Prep League to be franchised, the local parent program must be a chartered 16-18 Babe Ruth League. The sixteen-year-old prep leagues’ primary objectives are to keep the players involved in organized baseball and continue to learn and improve their baseball skills.

Without a sixteen-year-old Prep Program, most sixteen-year-olds receive very little game experience and eventually lose interest in baseball.

The 16-year-old division should open opportunities for leagues to add teams to their existing programs and more players to compete in tournament play.

16-18 DIVISION

16-18 Babe Ruth Baseball was born in 1966 and has increased steadily since its inception. The 16-18 division is designed to provide organized regulation baseball competition for 16, 17, and 18-year-old players as a development plateau where they can continue to learn and practice those principles which will help carry them through to a satisfactory and productive adulthood.

The 16-18 division was organized because Babe Ruth League, Inc. was aware its job was far from completed by providing for 13, 14, and 15-year-old players. No organization was making available similar opportunities for young players once they had surpassed the 13-15 Babe Ruth Baseball age. The 16-18 division was designed to fill a void much the same as the Babe Ruth 13-15 division had filled a similar gap when it became a reality in 1951.

In the 16-18 division, which is played under regulation baseball rules, can be found the opportunity to practice the ideals of sportsmanship, fair play, high morality and democratic spirit which the participant has learned at the 13-15 Babe Ruth level. The main objective of the 16-18 division is to provide a community-level program which eventually gives the players an opportunity to participate in the 16-18 World Series.

The 16-18 division has rapidly gained much attention and respect from college baseball coaches and major league scouts as an outstanding feeder program for future collegiate and professional baseball players.

BAMBINO BUDDY-BALL

Babe Ruth League believes that every child should have the opportunity to participate in baseball or softball. The Bambino Buddy-Ball League helps to make that dream a reality for physically and/or mentally challenged ballplayers.

With the help of a special “buddy” to swing a bat, round the bases or catch the ball, ballplayers are able to experience the thrills of the game.

The Bambino Buddy-Ball League is designed to foster confidence and self-esteem, make memories and have fun. An emotionally rewarding experience for all, “buddies” achieve satisfaction from their involvement while athletes benefit from the opportunity to participate in organized sports, physical fitness, and social events and outings.

Babe Ruth League, Inc. is a non-profit, educational organization dedicated to serving all youth, both boys and girls. Since its inception in 1984, Babe Ruth Softball has shown tremendous growth. It has become a premier softball program throughout the United States and Canada.

Babe Ruth Softball is designed for the girls ages 4-18. Age Divisions that are offered are 6U, 8U,10U, 12U,14U,16U and 18U. Leagues are encouraged to organize optional 10U teams within the 12U division, and 14U teams within the 16U division, but are not required to do so.

The primary emphasis of Babe Ruth Softball is on the local league season: education, skill development, participation for players at all levels of athletic ability, and to ensure the participants have FUN.

Babe Ruth Softball’s structural hierarchy evolves from the very heart of the program: the local league. Local leagues are organized into districts. Districts report to the State level. States are grouped into eight regions. Volunteer District, State, and Regional Softball Commissioners provide guidance and direction for the areas under their jurisdiction.

Leagues chartered with Babe Ruth Softball operate with simplicity, democracy, and much autonomy within the framework of Babe Ruth League, Inc. rules and regulations. Leagues are formed within defined and registered geographical boundaries. Dual-participation may be allowed at the local league’s discretion. Babe Ruth League, Inc. places no undue restrictions on the local league, a fact that sets it far apart from all other programs.

A highlight of Babe Ruth Softball is its annual tournament trail. Tournament teams from each local league are eligible to participate in District competition with winners advancing to the State and Regional levels. In 1999, Babe Ruth Softball debuted its first 12U World Series and 16U World Series. Eight regional champions from across the United States and Canada compete in each World Series.

In 2015, the World Series was expanded to the 8U, 10U and 14U age levels, and the 18U age level was added in 2016. Teams will either earn a berth to the series in these age groups by being a Regional Champion or they will be winners of a National Qualifier that is hosted by the state they reside in.

The World Series format begins with pool play competition, followed by either a single or double elimination bracket to determine the World Series Champion.

Treasure Coast, Florida is proud to be the host of the 2020 Cal Ripken 9-Year-Old Invitational and 11-Year-Old Invitational World Series.

The pineapple is a recurring motif around Jensen Beach. The town’s affinity for the spiny fruit can be traced back to 1879, when the first pineapple slips were planted by Capt. Thomas E. Richards at his Eden homestead. John Laurence Jensen immigrated from Denmark in 1881 and set up his pineapple plantation which eventually became the towns of Jensen and Stuart. A mere 14 years later, Jensen was shipping over 1 million boxes of pineapples each year during June and July earning the town, “Pineapple Capitol of the World.”

Hard freezes, fires and financial problems contributed to the industry’s final collapse in 1920, but the legacy of this tropical fruit lives on in the signage, store fronts and residences of Jensen Beach/Stuart. This unique history is celebrated annually during the Jensen Beach/Stuart Pineapple Festival.

2020 BABE RUTH BASEBALL 13-YEAR-OLD WORLD SERIES - JAMESTOWN, NEW YORKIn August of 2020, Jamestown will host its 18th World Series in forty years as the Babe Ruth 13-Year-Old World Series returns. In 1980, the first ever 13-Year-Old World Series was held here and Jamestown is proud to welcome the event back here this summer. In 1999, Jamestown also hosted the first ever 12U Softball World Series. The community also serves as the Babe Ruth World Series Training Center for cities who are interested in possibly hosting a future World Series.

All World Series games will be played at the 4,000 seat Russell E. Diethrick, Jr. Park—where baseball lovers watch the Jamestown Jammers, a member of the Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League, each season. Jamestown is proud of its parks system which consists of 20 parks covering 540 acres of land and an urban forestry of over 10,000 trees, including ball diamonds, picnic areas, tennis courts, playgrounds, soccer fields and a river walk area. Jamestown has been awarded the “Tree City USA” designation by the National Arbor Day Foundation for 38 consecutive years as well as being named Sterling Tree City Status for earning 10 growth awards.

Jamestown is located in the southwestern corner of New York State. It is 70 miles southwest of Buffalo, 40 miles northeast Erie PA, 140 miles north of Pittsburgh and is approximately half way between New York City and Chicago. It is at the base of picturesque Chautauqua Lake and serves as the regional hub for a diverse range of industrial and commercial businesses, along with a myriad of social and recreational opportunities. The city proper covers 10 square miles, and its highest point is approximately 1620 feet above sea level. The city maintains a population of approximately 31,000, within an urban area of 85,000 residents. Jamestown also serves as the

center of a region blessed with an abundance of outstanding recreational opportunities, including hunting, fishing, boating and camping within a few minutes of Allegheny State Park, Long Point State Park and Midway State Park.

Jamestown is fortunate to maintain a large variety of cultural facilities and activities for the enjoyment of residents and visitors alike. World renowned Chautauqua Institution, founded in 1874, continues to offer a vast assortment of religious, educational, recreational and artistic activities throughout its nine-week summer

season. Beautiful Victorian architecture lines the quaint streets and quiet setting of this unique community along the shores of Chautauqua Lake.

With Jamestown being the birthplace of Lucille Ball, located in the downtown area you will find the Lucille Ball/Dezi Arnez Center including museum, gift center and original stages from the television series “I Love Lucy.” Jamestown is also proud to be the home of the National Comedy Center which opened in 2018. The NCC is the first state-of-the-art museum dedicated to telling the vital story of comedy in America. Also to be found in the downtown area is the Reg Lenna Civic Center, a 1250 seat, beautifully restored former vaudeville house offering a variety of musical, theatre, and community events. The Lucille Ball Theater of Jamestown is the largest community membership theater in New York State. A short walk away you will find the Northwest Arena with twin rinks. In addition, the Robert H. Jackson Center is located on the outskirts of the Central Business District in Jamestown. Justice Jackson served as a United States Supreme Court Justice and was the architect if the International trial process and chief prosecutor of the surviving Nazi leaders at Nuremberg, Germany.

2020 SOFTBALL WORLD SERIES - TREASURE COAST, FLORIDATreasure Coast, Florida is proud to be the host of the 2020 Babe Ruth Softball World Series for all age divisions.

The pineapple is a recurring motif around Jensen Beach. The town’s affinity for the spiny fruit can be traced back to 1879, when the first pineapple slips were planted by Capt. Thomas E. Richards at his Eden homestead. John Laurence Jensen immigrated from Denmark in 1881 and set up his pineapple plantation which eventually became the towns of Jensen and Stuart. A mere 14 years later, Jensen was shipping over 1 million boxes of pineapples each year during June and July earning the town, “Pineapple Capitol of the World.”

Hard freezes, fires and financial problems contributed to the industry’s final collapse in 1920, but the legacy of this tropical fruit lives on in the signage, store fronts and residences of Jensen Beach/Stuart. This unique history is celebrated annually during the Jensen Beach/Stuart Pineapple Festival.

Parks & Beaches:• Hutchinson Island Beaches• Indian Riverside Park• Savannas Preserves State Park• Haney Creek Trail• Langford Park• Turtle Walks• Indian River Drive• Pineapple Park• Jensen Beach Causeway Park
