The Santa Clarita Little League has opened it’s fields to allow Santa Clarita residents and established teams to play on league fields.

The league began as Castaic little League in 1995, rebranded to Santa Clarita Little League in 2015 then transitioned to Cal Ripken Baseball in 2016.

By becoming a charter member with Cal Ripken baseball, the league was able to open it’s doors to all residents of the Santa Clarita Valley and allow the entry of established teams. Families and friends that wanted to stay and play together would be allowed to do so. Furthermore, boundary restrictions imposed by Little League International would now be lifted.

The league will offer varying levels of play for boys and girls between the ages of four and twelve, defined by the calendar that begins on May 1.

“Our baseball diamonds are designed to accommodate ballpayers from Coach Pitch Tee Ball straight through to our 12U Major Division,” according to the league’s website.

The ballpark is located off the 126 freeway just west of the 5 freeway. The league’s goal is to expand in the years ahead, and they welcome Santa Clarita residents to be a part of the expansion.

Santa Clarita Youth Baseball will offer tournament play for players eight and up, beginning with a Southern California State tournament with potential participation in the Cal Ripken Pacific Region tournament and World Series play.

The volunteer group is dedicated to making players experience with baseball rewarding.
“The goal is to watch each of the ballplayers develop to their furthest potential while playing a game we all love,” according to the website.
