How do I find San Pedro baseball for my child?
San Pedro baseball for kids is spread across three organizations. Eastview Little League is the neighborhood’s baseball league. The San Pedro Girls Softball Association covers softball. The City of Los Angeles runs sports at Peck Park Community Center. Each has a card below, and this page explains how to choose and when to register.
Timing matters this month. Eastview’s league site says spring enrollment is open, with early bird savings through November 15. The softball association’s site lists spring 2027 registration from November 1 to December 31. Both are on the calendar right now, so families who wait until January can miss the window.
Club and travel teams also exist in San Pedro. They are private businesses and vary widely, so this guide lists only community leagues and city recreation.

How does Eastview Little League work?
Eastview says it has brought baseball to San Pedro youth since 1961 and draws roughly 500 players a year, in spring and fall. It is part of California District 27, which also includes leagues in Lomita and Torrance. Players ages 4 to 15 are eligible, and divisions are set by Little League age chart.
- Tee-Ball: league ages 4 and 5. Hitting off a tee, no outs and no score.
- Farm: mostly league age 6, with machine pitch. A 5-year-old with a year of Tee-Ball can move up.
- Rookie: ages 7 and 8, the first division with kid pitch. Players are evaluated and picked in a manager draft.
- Minors: mostly ages 9 and 10, the first “live baseball” division with scores and standings.
- Major and Junior: the older divisions, also placed by evaluation and draft.
Spring enrollment runs from mid-October through December 15. Evaluations are usually the second week of January, followed by a coaches’ draft, and practices start in mid-January. Games run from late February into May, and the 2026 opening day was March 1. Fall ball sign-ups happen in July. Divisions have a cap, so late sign-ups can land on a waitlist, which the league fills first-come, first-served.
What first-time Eastview parents should expect
The league’s own tips for new parents are practical. Expect snack bar shifts and some fundraising, and plan on weekends at the park. Pants get dirty, so buy a spare pair. Bring a stadium chair and a blanket, because the bleachers can be cold and hard. Sunscreen, water and a hat help too. The league also reminds parents to stay positive with every child, since kids fail more than they succeed, and says most of all to keep it fun.
Eastview’s own field list names Knoll Hill, at 766 N. Center Street, and Bloch Field, at 1500 S. Harbor Blvd. It also lists a Rolling Hills Estates location. Families take on snack shack shifts, and the league gives every player a jersey and cap.
Which San Pedro Little League is my child in?
Eastview is the San Pedro Little League we found in California District 27’s league directory. Little League has one rule for ages 4 to 7 and another for ages 8 and up. A child of league age 7 or under can register in any Little League. From age 8, the child must live inside the league’s boundaries or attend school inside them, unless they have played continuously in that league since age 7.
Eastview’s FAQ says the same and asks families to check Little League’s league finder. Do not go by the mailing address: Eastview’s PO box is in Rancho Palos Verdes, while its fields are in San Pedro. Enter your home address or your child’s school address in the finder to see which league covers you. Baseball league age is the child’s age on August 31, according to Little League International.
Where can my daughter play softball in San Pedro?
For San Pedro softball, the confirmed girls league is the San Pedro Girls Softball Association. It plays under USA Softball at the Pistol Range Fields on North Gaffey Street, which sit on U.S. Navy property. Its site lists a fall season from September to November, and spring 2027 registration from November 1 to December 31. It did not post an age range on the page we read, so ask the league which divisions fit your daughter.
Peck Park is the second route. Its center lists softball and baseball among its sports programs and has a lighted baseball diamond. We could not read current flyers, so call the center at (310) 548-7580 for divisions and dates. Girls can also play Eastview baseball, since it welcomes ages 4 to 15. Softball players use a different age date from baseball: Little League softball counts a child’s age on December 31 of the previous year. Our softball pitching drills and hitting drills can be done at home.
Little League, Peck Park or club teams: how do I choose?
Eastview offers the longest runway for baseball: Tee-Ball at 4, evaluation-based teams from Rookie up, and a District 27 postseason for older players. It asks for volunteer time from families and sets caps on divisions.
Peck Park is a city recreation center, so registration runs through Los Angeles Recreation and Parks rather than a volunteer board. The center posts a sports registration form and a youth sports coach application. Because we could not verify its current divisions, ask the center what is offered this season before you plan around it.
Club and travel teams are a separate category. They tend to play more games farther from home, and their cost and commitment vary by team. For a first-year player, a community league is usually the simpler start. A child who wants more can add practice outside the season. Families on the hill can also see our Palos Verdes guide.
How can my child get extra practice between seasons?
DITR is a Torrance nonprofit that serves South Bay families, including San Pedro. Its free baseball and softball clinics will be open to all ages and give players extra reps next to any league. DITR is not affiliated with Eastview, the softball association or Peck Park. Get clinic updates here.
Older and advanced players can work one-on-one with Coach Murphy Su’a, who has coached for more than 40 years, through player development. Before Eastview’s January evaluations, our guide to baseball tryouts and our youth baseball drills help players show their best. See our Torrance guide for leagues next door.
Frequently asked questions
When does Eastview Little League spring enrollment close?
The league’s FAQ says spring enrollment closes the night of December 15. Enrolling after that depends on available space, and divisions that reach their cap use a waitlist.
Do players have to try out at Eastview?
Rookie, Minor, Major and Junior players are evaluated, then drafted by managers. Tee-Ball and Farm are not draft divisions. The league says players who miss evaluations are ranked from earlier seasons or placed through a blind draft.
What gear does my child need?
Eastview provides a jersey and cap. Players bring their own cleats, pants, socks, belt and glove, and a batting helmet. Boys need a protective cup. Used gear is fine, according to the league’s tips for new parents.
Can my child move up or down a division?
Requests to play up or down go to the league by email. Older divisions require the player to be evaluated in both the age-appropriate division and the requested one. Players who play down in Rookie, Minor or Major cannot pitch or be considered for All-Stars.
Where does Eastview play its games?
Eastview manages Knoll Hill at 766 N. Center Street and Bloch Field at 1500 S. Harbor Blvd in San Pedro. Its field list also shows a Rolling Hills Estates location, so check your team’s schedule.
How do I reach Peck Park about baseball or softball?
Call Peck Park Community Center at (310) 548-7580, or email the address posted on its Los Angeles Recreation and Parks page. The center posts a sports registration form on that page.
