About Us
Seaview Little League was founded
in 1971 and covers Southeast Huntington Beach and we offer 7 different
divisions for playing baseball. We are a non-profit charitable
organization whose mission exists to provide a healthy environment for the
youth of our community to play baseball, meet new friends and build
self-confidence. Through the game of baseball, we encourage participation,
develop character and discipline, promote teamwork and advocate citizenship and
community pride. SVLL is under the umbrella of Little League International,
Inc., and Little League District 62 of Southern California.
SVLL operates as an
all-volunteer program. We rely on the support of our network of families
and local businesses, as well as corporate and community sponsors.
