We can’t wait for baseball to begin! 
Boys and girls from all over town are eager to return to the fields. It’s a long winter of waiting, and players and their families can’t wait to come back to the place they call their second home. MTLL and SMLL are truly special spots where kids ages 4 through 12 of all playing abilities learn to develop their love of the game. From Tee Ball to competitive tournament teams, our top-notch community programs offer an ideal environment for players to excel and for families to enjoy their time at the fields.
Marple Township Little League (MTLL) and South Marple Little League (SMLL) offer children ages 4-12 the opportunity to learn life lessons, make new friends and develop a love of the game. Player registrations for both programs are wrapping up this month, and plans are underway for player evaluations, team assignments, opening day parades and family-fun special events. The season runs from late March through June.
Run by dedicated volunteers and chartered members of Little League Baseball, these two leagues provide a healthy environment to play ball and to build self-confidence and self-esteem. Each league requires residency or attendance at a school within the league boundaries.
MTLL was founded in 1951 and serves boys and girls of the Marple Newtown area. Its goal is to encourage participation, develop character and discipline and promote teamwork. MTLL sponsors divisions from tee-ball to the more competitive majors and minors divisions as well as tournament teams.
MTLL also has a Challenger League for individuals ages 4-18 with intellectual and physical challenges. This league allows these individuals to enjoy the benefits of Little League in an environment structured to their abilities. For more information email challenger.mtll@gmail.com or call 484-888-8780.
South Marple Little League serves children who attend St. Pius X, Loomis Elementary, Paxon Hollow Middle School and St. Francis of Assisi. Offering tee-ball, minor and major competitive baseball and softball teams, as well as tournament teams, SMLL is an ideal environment for players to excel and for families to enjoy their time at the fields. Opening day is scheduled for Saturday, March 29th.
Every season brings new possibilities, and the goal of these leagues is to ensure a safe and happy environment for families to enjoy the great game of baseball! For more information, visit the league websites at MTLL.org and SMLL.org.
