Parkland Little League Prepares for Spring 2024 Season

Parkland Little League Baseball is gearing up for its 33rd season this spring and what’s expected to be the league’s biggest year yet. This past spring, the league had a record-breaking enrollment of 525 players, followed by 325 players in the fall. Overall, Parkland Little League has been riding serious momentum, and organizers are excited to watch the numbers grow in 2023.

“We’re the fastest growing, second largest Little League in Broward County,” says President Rob Travinski. Rob has been President for eight years now and a board member since 2011. All board members, coaches, and staff entirely consist of volunteers and Parkland residents.

Parkland Little League is open to children ages four through sixteen of all skill levels. For children under six, the league offers an excellent Tee Ball program. Divisions split children by age group with many older divisions preparing them for high school baseball.

Teens who have graduated from Little League but would love to stay involved should consider the junior umpire program. Parkland Little League established a junior umpires program last year with compensating volunteers with service hours or pay, depending on the individual’s preference. The league holds regular umpire clinic to ensure their junior umpires have the necessary knowledge and skills to perform their duty during the game.

In addition to developing top-notch baseball players, Parkland Little League is focused on evolving the players beyond the field. Rob emphasizes the importance of sportsmanship and other important personal traits. “Parkland Little League creates an environment where kids can not only learn the game but learn how to be part of a team. They will learn life lessons about character they can use for the rest of their lives”.

Founded in 1939, Little League takes the title of the world’s largest organized youth sports program. The organization is at the heart of many communities and strive to teach life lessons that build stronger individuals and communities. The same is true here in Parkland. Parkland Little League saw impressive success in 2021 and 2022, with their 11u and 12u All Stars went to back-to-back state tournaments.

This past year, four out of five tournament teams made it to the finals. Our 13u, 12u, 10u, and 8u all were runners-up in the Florida District 10 Little League tournaments.
