The Challenger season runs from mid-March to mid-June, and includes about ten games on Sunday afternoons.  Home games are played at either Riordan High School or at SFLL's fields on Treasure Island.  Home games are interspersed with away games with Challenger teams in Marin, Oakland and on the Peninsula.

We also offer several supplemental events, such as group attendance at Giants games, and an end-of-season "Jamboree" in June.  Most years, the San Francisco Giants have graciously invited our kids to attend a "clinic" hosted by members of the Giants' team, always a highlight.

SFLL's network of volunteers come together with a common purpose and goal: to provide a positive and supportive baseball experience for all SFLL players. Parents and coaches and occasionally players from our other divisions provide support and as much (or little) assistance as each Challenger athlete wants or needs to participate to the best of their ability and enjoy the game.

Volunteers are the backbone of our program and we are always looking for more volunteers.  SFLL provides our volunteer coaches with a curriculum of activities focused on fun, fitness, and fundamentals that can be implemented during practices and games.  We also offer coaches a robust training program including in-person coaching clinics, Positive Coaching Alliance training, and more. 

We know first-hand that volunteering will be a fun and easy way to contribute to a quality baseball experience for all.  Simply put, the more involved you are, the more fun both you and your child will have!  Learn more about volunteering.

SFLL will provide each team with the equipment necessary for games and practices.  Equipment that will be provided to each team includes helmets, bats, balls, and a uniform shirt and hat for each player. Items that typically need to be purchased by the parent include a glove, baseball/softball pants, and cleats. Some parents may also choose to purchase a helmet and/or bat for their child to use.

SFLL offers equipment assistant to any family in need.  Contact your player agent if you need help getting equipment for your player.
