Dear P ADistrict 18 Leagues, Participants/Families & Volunteers:
As we begin to prepare for the upcoming 2026 season, there is important information to share moving forward,
due in large part to the State of Pennsylvania Little League program being re-districted.
Overview of the Redistricting Change
Due to mandates from Little League International, a statewide redistricting plan was discussed, proposed,
and put into motion over the past several years.
Under this plan approved in late 2025, Pennsylvania District 29 has been dissolved, and the leagues formerly
operating within District 29 — including East Stroudsburg and
East Stroudsburg Softball — have been realigned into District 18.
Additionally, the former District 18 experienced changes of its own, with the Hazleton Area leagues moving
to District 16.
The “New” District 18 (Section 6) Includes:
• Anthracite/Lansford
• East Stroudsburg
• East Stroudsburg Softball
• Franklin Township
• Jim Thorpe
• Pocono Mountain East
|
• Pocono Mountain West
• Stroudsburg
• Tamaqua Area
• Tobyhanna
• Towamensing Township
• Weatherly
• West End
|
|
Next Steps
We understand that change can bring questions, and we will continue to share updates as they become available.
Your individual league president and board of directors should remain your first point of contact.
Sincerely,
Bob Quinn
Pa District 18 Administrator
Pa Section 6 Coordinator
