Post-Season FAQ

Division Winners

(Juniors, Intermediate) The team with the best regular season record in inter-league play will be declared the division winner.

(Majors, AAAAA) The team with the best regular season record will be declared the division winner. In case of ties, the NWLL tiebreaker rules will determine the final order of finish. 

(A Ball, Rookie, Tee Ball, Ice Cream) All teams in these divisions will receive participation trophies at the end of the season. 

NWLL Tournament

(Majors) The Majors teams will compete in a best of 3 game series to determine a NWLL Tournament winner. The first place and second place teams will receive medals.

(AAA, AA) Starting in May, each upper division will compete in a double elimination tournament to determine a tournament champion. The seeding will be by order of finish in the regular season. The first place and second place teams in each division tournament will receive medals.

(A Ball, Rookie, Tee Ball) Starting in May, these divisions will play in a double-elimination NWLL Tournament. Seeds will be assigned randomly.  The first place and second place teams in each division tournament will receive medals. 

Tournament of Champions

(Juniors, Intermediate, Majors, AAA, AA) The Tournament of Champions (TOC) is a single elimination tournament of the division winners from leagues within District 55 (i.e., Aliso Viejo, Laguna Niguel, etc).  D55 will allow the top team in Juniors, Intermediate, Majors, AAA and AA as determined by regular season record to compete in the TOC. 

Rules for TOC play differ from the regular season rules in effect in NWLL. As such, umpires, managers, coaches, scorekeepers and tournament directors must undergo mandatory training.  

All-Stars

Northwood Little League All-Star teams will be voted on by players and coaches. Teams will compete against the best players in other leagues within District 55:

  • 14 and under All-Stars
  • 13 and under All-Stars
  • 12 and under All-Stars
  • 11 and under All-Stars
  • 10 and under All-Stars
  • 9 and under All-Stars

District 55's All-Star tournaments are usually held from mid-June to mid-July, exact dates TBD. Teams that win their district tournament will go on to sectional tournaments later in July, and possibly on to state and regional tournaments. Little League (12 and Under) All-Star play culminates in the Little League World Series in August.
