General Info

  • What is Golden Junior Baseball Association (GJBA)? 
    • GJBA is a Colorado 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that has provided youth baseball opportunities in Jefferson County for over 35 years.  
    • The GJBA Board of Directors is composed entirely of adult volunteers (parents and family members of players).
    • GJBA is a founding member of the Rocky Mountain Junior Baseball League (RMJBL).  GJBA teams play games against comparable teams from neighboring baseball associations located generally within Jefferson County.  
    • Starting in spring 2024, GJBA will continue to form 13U and 14U teams within RMJBL, but players of age 12 and under will now participate in Golden Little League (see below). 
  • What is Golden Little League (GLL)? 
    • https://www.goldenlittleleague.com/
    • The GJBA Board of Directors overwhelmingly approved an August 2023 motion by a 30-1 count to create an official chartered Little League Baseball® program.  Little League International approved the creation of GLL in November 2023.  Several existing neighboring leagues graciously adjusted their boundary areas to accommodate the creation of GLL, and GLL was subsequently assigned as a new member of Colorado District 2 (League ID#325300).   
    • As a result of this decision, starting in the spring 2024, players of League Age 12 and younger will be placed on teams under a new organization named Golden Little League (GLL).
