What happens if my child changes clubs to one outside our residential area?

A player can join any club at the start of their baseball journey, regardless of where the club is relative to where they live. If a player later moves to a club in a different league boundary area from their residential qualification (an "out of area" move), they must apply for and be granted a clearance from their original club. The clearance form must say why the player requested it, and it is only complete once approved by the Charter Committee in Williamsport (Little League International).

Such a player is then "redshirted" and cannot play in any Tournament (All-Star) team for that season. Baseball Australia notes this is a Little League International requirement and cannot be waived, but it does not affect eligibility for tournaments outside the four international tournament pathways.
