13U LINCOLN TRAIL JUNIOR LEAGUE
11, 12, and 13 Year Olds (who are not 14 before September 1) play on 1 of 2 Marshall Teams in the Lincoln Trail Jr. League. This league consists of 16 teams from Marshall, Robinson, Hutsonville, Palestine, Oblong, Lawrenceville, Martinsville, and Bridgeport. Teams are divided into 3 divisions for regular season play. Teams will play everyone in their division once and will have some division crossover games. There are typically 10 regular season games half in Marshall on the Varsity Field and half on the road. An end of season tournament is hosted in Robinson.
Due to Lincoln Trail Junior League By-Laws and Rules, MGSL is unable to make exceptions for birthdates with regards to turning 14 prior to September 1. Those players must move up to the 18u Lincoln Trail League.
