Parkway Little League

Little League Parkway Little League has proudly served children in the St. Paul, Maplewood, Oakdale, North St. Paul area since 1955. Our Little League program will play at Parkway along with other District 1 Little League programs (Centennial). The Little League program will accommodate players from 4 to 12 years old. Commitment from our parents is VERY IMPORTANT! In order for our park to be a success and for our children to maximize their joy of playing baseball, your participation is MANDATORY. We require families to complete 12 hours of volunteer shifts per family (3 hours during tournaments). It is up to the family of the player to determine who is going to work the hours needed. You have the ability to opt-out of working your volunteer hours through a $200 buyout (per family). If you are unable to work your shift(s) and do not opt-out through Parkway, a $250 fee will be assessed to your child's baseball account. This fee would need to be paid before your child would be able to participate the following season. T-Ball T-ball is for boys and girls in Pre-K and Kindergarten.
