| ** # of games: Little League requires a mininum 12 game regular season prior to June 15. In Ottawa we also have a playoff after that. Many Spring and Summer teams participate in weekend tournaments, which may be local or away. | |||||||
| *** Seasons are Spring (House League in May and June), Summer (House League in July and August) and Tournament (World Series playdowns). "Tournament" (with a capital 'T') refers to the Little League playdowns which include Districts, Provincials, Canadians, and World Series. Tournament teams often participate as a team in Summer House League as long as they are not active in the Tournament playdowns. | |||||||
