Bellefonte joined Little League International on February 17th, 1949. Spearheaded by Frank Webster, the league’s first president, The Bellefonte and Vicinity Little League became Centre County’s first sanction little league. Soon after the league’s founding, a suitable field was purchased by the Bellefonte Borough on behalf of the League. This field, that is still in use today, was dedicated in 1964 as Webster Field in honor of the league’s founder and long time president. Fielding only 4 teams in the Majors in 1949, the League has grown and now fields, on average, around 20 teams in several different divisions offering opportunities for children from age 4 - 13 to play baseball.

Bellefonte Little League has brought America’s pastime to thousands of area kids and more importantly taught many of life’s lessons through encouragement, fairness, teamwork and competition. The players that develop in our program have become leaders of the community. We are proud many of our alumni have served in the military, become judges, mayors, commissioners, senators, Major League ball players, successful business owners, teachers and coaches the success goes on and on.

The Bellefonte area has enjoyed a rich tradition of Little League Baseball since 1949. That very tradition of a baseball program dedicated to a positive, fundamental approach to the game and the development of well rounded kids within the community has become the core of our success and our mantra .. the Bellefonte Way. With that tradition, the success of our Bellefonte Little League program has recently brought tremendous growth, exciting changes, and new challenges that face our organization now and into the future. There is no time like now to join!
