Welcome to the Home of Neartown Little League!

We are a Chartered member of Little League Baseball, Inc. and as a non-profit organization we also follow Little League's mission statement "to promote, develop, supervise, and voluntarily assist in all lawful ways, the interest of those who will participate in Little League Baseball and Softball."
 
Through proper guidance and exemplary leadership, the Little League program assists youth in developing the qualities of citizenship, discipline, teamwork and physical well-being. By espousing the virtues of character, courage and loyalty, the Little League Baseball and Softball program is designed to develop superior citizens rather than superior athletes
 
We hope you and your children (boys & girls ages 5-12) will decide to become part of the Neartown Family and sign up to play ball with us!
