Welcome to Sierra Little League's 2010 season!

Sierra Little League and this site are undergoing some changes - please check back often for updates and news!

Our league includes four divisions for boys and girls ages 4-18 years old. T-Ball, Minors, Majors and Juniors.  First established in 1955,  Sierra Little is dedicated to providing neighborhood children an opportunity to learn and play baseball.  Since its earliest beginning Little League Baseball has been a program of serivce to the youth.  It is geared to provide an outlet of healthy activity and training under good leadership in the atmosphere of wholesome community activity.

Little League is dedicated to helping children become good and decent citizens.  It strives to inspire them with a goal and to enrich their lives toward the day they will take their place in our community.

Winning is nice, yet the experience of winning passes quickly.  The skills of baseball will be used in the short years of youth.  It is the values of leadership, fairplay and sportsmanship learned in Little League Baseball that are the building blocks of the future.

Coach

Coaches assist the manager with practices and games.  Each team is allowed only two "official" coaches in addition to the manager, however all other parents who wish to participate in games or practices are encouraged to do so.

Team Parent

The team parent is the person in charge of communicating information to the team.  This includes pratices and game schedules, snack schedules and any other pertinent league information.  The team parent is also responsible for the creation of a team banner. It is cruial to have a team parent assume responsibility of these tasks in order to allow the manager and coaches tofocus on training the players.
