The league age determination date is the age a player has attained as of a specific date, for the purpose of placing the player in a particular division. For the past 50 years in Dixie Youth and all other youth baseball programs in the United States, that date has been July 31.

Beginning in 2006, the date in all divisions of Dixie Youth Baseball will be April 30 of the current calendar year.

For example: Under the old regulation, a baseball player who turns 13 in May, June or July of 2006 would have been considered league-age 13 for the entire season. That would be the case, despite the fact that such a player likely would have played most or all of the regular season (which generally ends in June) without having actually reached his or her 13th birthday. Under the new regulation, such a player will have a league age of 12 throughout the 2006 season.
