About Us

Founded in 1980, South London Baseball has provided organized sports opportunities to over 25,000 youth in our community. Our programs have helped develop our youth by teaching teamwork, instilling values, and building confidence. South London Baseball is a fair play and

tobaccoo free organization, committed to teaching youth the True Values of Sport by giving it their all , playing fair, respecting others, keeping it fun, staying healthy, including everyone, and giving back to their community.

Our Programs

Our league offers a range of programs to participants between the ages of 4 and 21. We have Learn-To-Play programs of boys and girls ages 4 - 9 which are

set in a fun focused environment and score is never kept. Our coed hardball program provides opportunities in recreational and competitive streams to

provide our players an atmosphere which meets their specific skill and interest level. Also, we offer a girls only fastball stream which is designed to provide a fun focused environment to build girls confidence and keep sport meaningful for

them through all stages of childhood from 10 - 21 years of age.

Involvement in the Community

In addition to providing sport opportunities for our youth, South London Baseball believes in instilling a sense of community pride in our kids. Our

organization is actively involved in the community through participation at local community fun days (Westminster Park/ Southeast London), active involvement in local schools, and the City of London adopt-a-park program

(Paul Haggis and Heritage). These initiatives ensure our league and sponsors are visible in our community and teaches our kids the importance of community

involvement.

CORPORATE SOCIAl RESPOnSIbIlITy Many markets favour companies which support philanthropic causes. By investing in a non-profit youth based organization, your company is better viewed as a socially responsible corporation and associates your company logo with good feelings and fond memories of youth sports.

COMMUnITy InvESTMEnT It is a well known statistic that kids involved in organized sports are less likely to get into trouble and are more likely to be successful. Your investment through a sponsorship helps make sports more affordable for more kids and is therefore a direct investment in their long term success as an individual.
