About Us

About Us

Hartnell Little League is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to developing the qualities of citizenship, discipline, teamwork and physical well-being in boys and girls. Chartered by Little League International, Hartnell Little League has been an official Little League organization serving the youth of Salinas, California since 1961. Little League International was founded in Williamsport, PA, in 1939 and is the largest organized youth sports program in the world. Little League establishes the official rules and procedures in place for all of its chartered leagues, including the boundaries for all Little Leagues in operation. To join our league, you must be a resident of or attend school within our defined boundaries which includes most of South Salinas, Los Laureles, Las Palmas, Toro, San Benancio and Spreckels (click here to see the Hartnell Boundary Map). We offer baseball teams for kids starting with Tee Ball through the Juniors divisions spanning ages of 4 - 14. Our league is a 100% volunteer-run operation. It takes a team effort by our parents to create a season full of fun and life-long memories and life lessons for our players. Board Members, Managers, Coaches, Team Parents and Volunteers sacrifice countless hours before, during, and after the season to ensure that the league runs successfully. Hartnell Little League is funded entirely by registration fees, fundraising, concession sales, and sponsor donations. We are especially proud to be supported by several local sponsors who are indispensable in our efforts to help youth in Salinas. See below on our rolling banner to learn which entities and individuals have consistently supported our program. Whether as a volunteer or sponsor, you can also make your contribution. We are always in need of your help.
