We are a youth baseball organization for players 13 - 19 years of age. We have three divisions of play: PONY, Colt, and Palomino.
PONY: For players aged 13 and 14. PONY has both a Fall season and a Spring Season. Our Fall program focuses on instructing players new to PONY to longer base lengths (80'), longer pitching distance (54'), balks, and leads to name a few of the differences with Little League. Our Spring program is our competitive league.
