BASEBALL & LITTLE LEAGUE

---

Since 1925, The American Legion has sponsored a nationwide youth baseball program. For nearly 100 years, millions of young players have enjoyed playing baseball. The American Legion and their 2 million members have raised millions of dollars each year for players to learn the importance of teamwork, discipline, leadership and good sportsmanship. The American Legion sponsors American Legion Baseball and Little League to give players an opportunity to develop their skills, personal fitness, leadership qualities and to have fun.

More than 50,000 young athletes compete for nearly 3,000 American Legion Baseball teams each year. Some of these baseball players go on to play professionally, including more than 82 who have been enshrined in the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. legion.org/baseball
