Piedmont has been operating as a recreational youth baseball program at New Castle County's Swift Park fields in Hockessin, Delaware since 1976. Originally sanctioned with Little League baseball, we became affiliated with Babe Ruth Baseball, Inc. in 1992.

Piedmont serves over 1,200 children for its main program: spring-time Baseball and Softball for youth ages 5 to 18 years old. In 2000, we introduced Softball for girls ages 8 to 16 years old.

In addition to our competitive spring leagues, we traditionally organize less competitive, instructional baseball and softball programs during the fall months. Clinics are organized during the winter for the training of players, adult coaches, and umpires.  

Piedmont Tournament teams have competed successfully in Delaware State and Mid-Atlantic Regional play. In 2012, our 11-year-old baseball team won the Mid-Atlantic Regional Tournament, and our 9-year-old baseball team advanced to the Regional Finals. In 2010, the we won the Delaware State Championships at the 9 and 11-year-old age groups.  Our 11-year-old baseball team went on the win the Mid-Atlantic Regional Championship. In 2007, we won the baseball Delaware State Championship at the 10, 12, and 14-year-old age groups. In 2006, our 9-year-old baseball team won the Mid-Atlantic Regional tournament. 

Piedmont Baseball League, Inc. is a non-profit organization run by volunteers from the Hockessin, DE community. We rely on local business sponsorship to defer expenses of field maintenance, equipment and capital upgrades.

Please go out of your way to thank our Sponsors! We invite you to come out and visit our Swift Park / Valley Road fields and enjoy an evening of exciting youth baseball and softball action.
