Challenger Little League Logo

Lubbock Challenger Baseball Teams are set up according to abilities, rather than age, and can include as many as 15-20 players. Challenger games can be played as tee ball games, coach pitch, player pitch, or a combination of the three.

​

In a Challenger game, each player gets a chance to bat. The side is retired when the offense has batted through the roster. Little League recommends that no score be kept during Challenger games. The Challenger players wear the same uniforms, shoulder patches and safety equipment as other Little League players.

​

One of the benefits of having a Challenger Division is that it encourages the use of “buddies” for the Challenger players. The buddies assist the Challenger players on the field, but whenever possible, encourage the players to bat and make plays themselves. However, the buddy is always nearby to help when needed.

​

Little League’s Challenger Division was founded in 1989 and includes over 22,000 players nationally. Little League is an all-volunteer, not-for-profit organization. While fees are requested to defray costs, waivers are offered and no children will be denied the opportunity to play.
