The Continental/AA League is the first level of competitive baseball, although the focus continues to be on instruction and teaching the foundations of the game.  There are required substitutions a running batting order and two innings of mandatory infield play.  There is a minimum of 3 practices/games per week.  A hard baseball is used, and there is player-to-player pitching.  This league introduces competitive play, and recognizes a league champion after an intra-league post-season playoff.

Age Requirement:
9 year olds.   

Uniform & Equipment:
TLL supplies  team jersey, with team name, pants, socks and cap.  Player purchases  cleats, baseball glove and helmet .  

Managers/Coaches Clinics: 
Mandatory TLL manager/coaches training is scheduled in February. The League Commissioner will be in contact with all Managers. 

Schedule: 
Typically, AA teams have 3 to 4 events in a week (2-3 games, 1-2 practices).
 

Evaluation Session:
All 9 year olds are guaranteed a spot in AA, and are required to attend an evaluation session.  This is a competitive league where scores and standings are kept, so the evaluation is important to help the league balance the teams fairly.
