Little League® is an international pastime that has been a fabric of societies throughout the world for 79 years. Since its founding in 1939 by Carl Stotz, Little League has instilled leadership, character, courage and loyalty in all that participate, including the nearly 1.5 million adult volunteers. Little League can be found in more than 80 countries worldwide with more than 2.4 million children participating each year. Little League has celebrated many milestones due to the dedication of its players, parents and volunteers.
Sweetwater Valley Little League provides a safe and enjoyable environment for youth ages 4 to 16 to play baseball at all levels. Through proper guidance and exemplary leadership, our Little League program assists youths in developing the qualities of citizenship, discipline, teamwork, physical well-being, friendly competition, skill development, human growth, good sportsmanship and family values. By espousing the virtues of character, courage and loyalty, our Little League Baseball program is designed to develop superior citizens rather than superior athletes.
In 2015, our All Star team competed in the World Series representing the West as the 2015 Western Regional Champions. The team had 10 homeruns in their first two games of the Western Regional Tournament. The Sweetwater Valley Little League all-star team came within one game of competing for the U.S. championship in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Sweetwater Valley was the 11th team from San Diego County to qualify for the Little League World Series and third in seven years.
