American Legion Baseball has a storied history dating back to 1925. Legion Baseball has taught hundreds of thousands of young Americans the importance of sportsmanship, good health and active citizenship. The number of former Legion players who have gone on to the pros is far too large to chart. More than half of current major-leaguers played Legion Baseball. So did almost every working MLB manager, along with several former commissioners. American Legion Baseball has been, and continues to be, a stepping stone to manhood for millions of young men who have gone on to serve their country or community, raise families or play the sport at the highest level.
This mirrors much of the SunWest baseball foundational philosophy that starts in our 9U program and follows our players throughout their experience.
