Piedmont has been operating as a
recreational youth baseball program at New Castle County's Swift Park fields in
Hockessin, Delaware since 1976. Originally sanctioned with Little League
baseball, we became affiliated with Babe Ruth Baseball, Inc. in 1992.
Piedmont serves over 1200 children for its main program: spring-time Baseball
and Softball for youth ages 5 to 18 years-old. In 2000, we introduced Softball for girls ages
8 - 16 years-old.
In addition to our competitive spring leagues, we
traditionally organize less competitive, instructional baseball and softball programs during
the fall months. Clinics are organized during the winter for the training of
players, adult coaches, and umpires.
Piedmont Tournament teams have competed successfully in Delaware State and
Mid-Atlantic Regional play.
In 2012, our 11 year old team won the Mid-Atlantic Regional Tournament,
and our 9 year old team advanced to the Regional Finals.
In 2010, we won the Delaware State Championships at
the 9 and 11 year old age groups. Our 11 year old team went on the win the
Mid-Atlantic Regional Championship.
In 2007, we won the Delaware State
Championship at the 10, 12, 14 year-old age groups.
In 2006, our 9 year old team
won the Mid-Atlantic Regional tournament.
Piedmont Baseball League, Inc.
is a non-profit organization run by volunteers from the Hockessin, DE community.
We rely on local business sponsorship to defer expenses of field maintenance,
equipment and capital upgrades.
Please go out of your way to thank our Sponsors!
