As a local non-profit and community service organization, we rely on the generosity of local businesses and donors to provide our programming to the youth of New Haven.

Here are a few things you might not know about Walter Pop Smith Little League:

  • Walter Pop Smith Little League was founded over 60 years ago, and is one of the few leagues in the Northeast to represent the Eastern Region at the Little League World Series (read about our 1974 team here).
  • 2022 registration was 330 players! We were delighted that our registration numbers bounced back from the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • We offer programming for all children ages 4 through 12, encompassing t-ball, coach pitch, junior majors, and majors.

Become a Partner

For some of you, the love of baseball and care for New Haven youth is so great that you want to give beyond these sponsorship levels. This is a truly humbling thing, and makes an enormous impact in how we're able to develop and invest in the City of New Haven and our youth during some of their most formative years. 

Past partners have provided funds for projects like indoor batting cages, new equipment, technology, uniforms, and so much more. 

If you'd like to give $5,000 or more, please contact Fundraising and Sponsorship Officer Sheniquia McCrea at [email protected] or 203-508-0158.

Your Generosity Makes an Impact

A gift to Walter Pop Smith Little League is a gift to New Haven youth. Every dollar you give is tax-deductible and goes directly to youth programming. None of our directors or staff are paid—everyone volunteers their time to provide a foundational love of baseball, and very important life lessons to our beloved players. 

Thank you for considering a sponsorship with Walter Pop Smith Little League!
