At its January 2025 meeting, the VLL Board aligned on changes to the VLL Local Rules for the Spring 2025 season. Key changes include:
- Amending the no-new-inning time limit for Majors, 3A, and 2A games to 1hr 45mins (from 1hr 50mins), to be consistent with Little League International rules, and specifying that the start time is calculated from the end of the plate conference.
- Prohibiting player trades at the Majors level.
- Requiring the use of C-Flaps on batting helmets at the 2A level and above.
- Clarifying a procedure for the 3A and 2A drafts to "pre-slot" the children of Managers and one assistant coach.
- Clarifying the tiebreaker procedures for season standings for Majors, 3A, and 2A.
- Clarifying that the "two walk then coach pitch" rule in 2A also applies in the town tournament.
