Elyria may host senior Little League next season
Elyria, home to the oldest Little League in Ohio, stands first in line for a Senior Little League unit for ages 13 to 15, per district six rep Herman Lappin. A meeting with Lappin and other district six officials will decide if Elyria proceeds this season, with other cities in the district ready to contest the spot. The senior program would sit under Little League but could replace existing PONY and Babe Ruth setups as local officials opt to move in. Plans call for 15 players per team across ages 13 14 and 15 on a full-size field, matching Babe Ruth age divisions and offering a path to higher levels like high school and American Legion junior baseball.
