Aptos Little League: History and Recent Highlights

Aptos Little League has been a proud part of our community for generations. Built on volunteer spirit and a shared love of the game, it has provided a place for local kids to learn, grow, and compete while creating lifelong memories. Each season brings new milestones that continue to define our league’s reputation for excellence and heart.

Historical Milestones

• In 2002, the Aptos All-Stars captured the West Regional Championship and advanced to the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, becoming one of only a few California teams to reach that level.

• The story of that remarkable season was featured in the PBS documentary Small Ball: A Little League Story, which shared the journey of our players, coaches, and families with the world.

• In recognition of their accomplishment, the State of California declared October 26, 2002, “Aptos Little League Day.”


Recent Achievements and Highlights

• In 2025, the 12-year-old All-Stars advanced through the Northern California tournament, highlighted by a commanding 9–0 victory and a series of close, hard-fought games.

• That same year, the Aptos All-Stars earned the Section 5 Championship, shutting out Los Altos 9–0 to claim the title.

• The Majors All-Stars also advanced deep into the NorCal tournament, placing 3rd, showing the consistent strength and development of our program.


Why Register Your Child for Spring 2026

A legacy of success that continues today

From the World Series stage in 2002 to the NorCal tournaments of 2025, Aptos Little League continues to compete with heart and pride. Our history is strong, but our focus is on the players stepping up to the plate right now.

A balanced program for every player

We welcome all skill levels and create an environment where players can grow, gain confidence, and discover what it means to be part of a team.

A community that invests in its kids

Parents, coaches, and local sponsors work together to make every season possible. Their dedication keeps our fields maintained, our equipment updated, and our coaching staff supported.

Tradition with purpose

When your child joins Aptos Little League, they become part of a tradition that values teamwork, respect, and perseverance. They carry forward the same community pride that has shaped this league for decades.

Lessons that last a lifetime

Baseball teaches far more than how to swing a bat or throw a ball. It builds confidence, resilience, and friendships that often last well beyond the season.
