For 50 years, Half Moon Bay Little League has developed life-long successful habits for the Coastside youth by combining athleticism, teamwork, perseverance, and hard work.  Recently, youth baseball has been forced to compete with several other sports, cutting into the total number of kids playing youth baseball throughout the country. Acknowledging that kids and families are making choices based on not just which sport but also the program behind the sport, we recognize how important it is to do our best to ensure that our game, baseball is seen as a vibrant, compelling option. 

The purpose of the organization is to support, promote and facilitate youth baseball in the city of Half Moon Bay and it's surrounding Coastside communities reaching from Montara to Pescadero. Half Moon Bay Little League is a non profit 501 (c)(3). Tax ID 23-7084722.

                                                                               


Youth baseball provides a great venue for learning life lessons and shaping young players early.  And let’s be honest, it is much more fun to learn these life lessons playing the game of baseball than the many other ways we’ve all experienced! 

TEAMWORK: Each player has a specific role, but it takes players working together to “make a play”. One never knows what will happen after the pitch is thrown, but everyone relies on their teammates to know what to do when it does. 

PERSEVERANCE: Players learn the importance of finding their confidence after “striking out” and how rewarding it is when you make contact the next time up.  This game is not about perfection, even the world’s best hitters swing and miss 70% of the time.

WORK ETHIC: Kids experience individually the fun of the game, but also the challenge of understanding and learning a complex game. The game rewards those who put in the effort to improve not only their physical abilities but their mental ones as well.
