A highlight of the spring & summer seasons: Tournaments!
New West Little League typically hosts three tournaments during the spring season, one per Division from Rookie up, usually in May. Little League teams from District 6 and other neighbouring Little League teams join us at Moody Park diamonds for up to 4 consecutive days of games per tournament.
T-Ball families are encouraged to come out to cheer on the big kids! In late June, T-Ball players get a chance to be part of the action at the District 6 T-Ball Jamboree.
New West Little League also hosts and participates in other leagues’ All-Stars tournaments in June and July, as well as the District 6 Tournaments. The winner of the D6 Minor Tournament advances to the LL BC Provincial Championships. The winner of the D6 Major Tournament also advances the LL BC Provincial Championships, and then potentially to the LL Canada Regional Championships. The winner of the Regionals advances to the LL World Series in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania, USA.
Have a look at our Hall of Champions page to see some of our teams’ great accomplishments at various tournaments over the years!

Remember that our tournaments depend on volunteers to make them happen, so please see our Parent Volunteer Roles page to find out how you can help! 🙂
Justin Morneau Minors Tournament
Named after our baseball “Home Town Hero,” former New West resident and MLB player Justin Morneau, this tournament usually takes place in early May. Players must be from their league’s Minor division to participate.
Victoria Day Weekend Rookie Tournament
This tournament is for players in their league’s Rookie division, and it occurs during the Victoria Day long weekend in May. For many players, this will be their first ever tournament experience!
Hyack Majors Tournament & Home Run Derby
An annual NWBA event since 1965, this tournament takes place during New West’s Hyack Festival, in late May. Participants must be a member of their league’s Major division (house) team. Player ages are 9-12, 10-12, or 11-12 (dependent on the format of their league’s Majors program).
District 6 T-Ball Jamboree
Players from T-Ball 2 may be selected to play in the District 6 T-Ball Jamboree, held at the end of June.
District 6 Minor (9/10s) All-Stars Tournament
All Minor Division players will be invited in May to try out for the coach-selected competitive Minor “All-Stars Team.” This team will represent New West at the District 6 Minor (9/10s) All-Star tournament in July. The winner of that tournament advances to the BC Provincials in late July.
