CGLL History & 2022 Update

The Beginning…

College Glen Little League was founded in 1974. Prior to that, we were part of American River Little League. In the fall of 1974, we received our charter from Williamsport, PA, home of Little League Baseball, Inc. College Glen Little League serves the area bound by Howe Avenue to the west, the American River to the north, Bradshaw Road to the east and Folsom Boulevard to the south.

Under the direction of our first president, Merle Shields, we developed our complex on land belonging to the Sacramento Unified School District. On December 1, 1974, we obtained a lease on the land, which is now owned by the Sacramento City Parks and Recreation Department. Until our complex and diamonds were completed in 1975, the first of our inaugural season games were played on local school fields.

The Sacramento City Parks and Recreation Department gave us permission to use the fields for Farm and Pee Wee Division play and allowed us to alter the fields for better playing conditions. A scorekeeper booth and bleachers were added to the Farm field and benches for the players were added to the Pee Wee field.

Fast Forward...

The 2022 season begins by recognizing the accomplishments of the 2021 Major (10-12) AllStars for winning the District 5 Championship...the first in CG history in 30+ years. They also made it to the Section Finals and from that team, only 3 players aged out of the division. After 4 years, the new farm field is game ready and will feature a full schedule of regular season farm games this year. Additionally, the league has purchased a new ICEE machine for the snack bar, so we are ready for our 48th season is to be our best yet!
