Official Website of Santa Susana Baseball
Santa Susana Baseball is a non-profit community baseball league run exclusively by volunteers with player divisions for boys and girls between the ages of 5 and 14 (age as of April 30, 2009). Our baseball complex is located in the scenic foothills of Simi Valley, California between Houghton Park and Township Elementary on Township Avenue between Tapo Canyon Road and Tapo Street.
Santa Susana Baseball has been serving the Simi Valley area for 46 years. We are dedicated to teaching baseball skills, teamwork and sportsmanship in the welcoming spirit of the PONY ("Protect Our Nation's Youth") sports organization. Join us and make new friends playing youth baseball the way it's meant to be.

Reminders to Managers
Just a reminder that visiting team managers playing the last game of the day on Pinto through Bronco are required to provide security for the closing Snack Bar crew. Please make your presence known at the Snack Bar until we are all locked up. Also, it is each manager's responsibility to see that trash around his team's dugout and bleachers has been picked up and that trash cans (minus the trash) are placed in the proper storage areas. Managers, we thank you for all you do!
