GREATER OTTAWA BASEBALL LEAGUE 19U RULES & REGULATIONS

The GOBL is a wooden bat baseball league for players aged 17, 18 and 19 as of August 31st of the current year. It is a replacement for Little League International’s cancelled Big League program, and as such uses the rules of Big League as they last existed in 2016, with local modifications.

The Board of the GOBL consists of the District Administrators of Ontario Districts 2 and 6, and Presidents from any local Leagues which contributes a team to GOBL, and a Convener appointed to oversee the GOBL.

This is a local league. There is no equivalent to Little League’s Tournament Play (or “All-Star”) structure.

The rules follow the 2016 Little League Rule Book (the last year Big League was a LL program) with amendments as listed in the 19U Rules from the D2 website.
