A Historic Day in Poquoson Little League Baseball

On May 16, 1958, Wayne Martin, pitcher of the home team "Yankees" threw the first pitch to start organized Little League Baseball in the town of Poquoson. The Yankees, coached by John "Tiny" Firth and Everette "Big Penny" Martin, won by scoring 7 runs in the bottom of the 5th inning to beat the braves 7-6. Martin was the winning pitcher.

This day will go down in history as Poquoson Little League continues to grow, creating great baseball and softball players!

Established and Chartered
Established and chartered with Little League International in 1959, Poquoson Little League (PLL) joined seven leagues creating District 7 Little League.  Alongside Poquoson, there is Deer Park LL, Hampton-Wythe LL, Northampton LL, Phoebus LL, Warwick LL, and York County LL.

Located  in the heart of the city, in between Poquoson Elementary and Poquoson  Middle Schools, is the PLL Complex. The complex has three fields, dedicated to our league: two Little League-sized fields with grass infields and one Little League-sized field with dirt infield for T-Ball, Coach Pitch, and Softball.

Also located at the complex is Conover's Corner, home of the the league's concession stand and as well as board room and storage area. Conover's Corner is a  tribute to Jeff Conover, one of PLL's most dedicated and tireless volunteers.  Come join Poquoson Little League!

In the past decade alone, Poquoson Little League (PLL) has clinched an astonishing 16 District Championships, a testament to its unwavering dedication to excellence. But the accolades don't stop at the district level; the league takes immense pride in its illustrious history, sculpting raw talent and nurturing them into baseball and softball prodigies.

It's a legacy that sees former PLL players not just mastering the fields of college ball, but also soaring high in the realm of professional baseball. We celebrate each and every one of these sporting luminaries, and our list is ever-evolving.
