Located in Northeastern Pennsylvania, this league was named in honor of the most prestigious player to ever develop from our region, Christy Mathewson.

Prior to playing with the New York Giants and Cincinnati Reds, he played baseball at the local Keystone Academy and Bucknell University and professional football as a fullback for the Pittsburgh Stars of the National Football League, circa 1900.

Born August 12, 1880 Christy posted a career record of 373-188, e.r.a. of 2.13, 2,502 strikeouts, 2 time World Series champion (1905, 1921), 2 time Triple Crown (1905, 1908), 4 time NL wins leader (1905, 1907, 1908, 1910), 5 time NL ERA leader (1905, 1908, 1909, 1911, 1913), 5 time NL strikeout leader (1903–1905, 1907, 1908), Pitched two no-hitters, and was voted into the 1st class of the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1936 with 90.7% of the vote.

Christy Mathewson Little League serves communities of Lackawanna, Wyoming, and Susquehanna Counties.

Hello and welcome to the start of the 2023 Christy Mathewson baseball season!!

Signups for the 2023 season will open January  1 and close promptly  February  5 for all age groups.

 The costs for the 2023 season will remain at $65 for a single player with a discount of $10 per additional family member.

New for 2023, as per our recent relocation to District 32 and other reasons beyond our control, Majors and Minors will hold tryouts and teams will be drafted per Little League regulations. This is the ONLY Little League approved method of player selection and we now must comply. The total number of teams will be determined by the total number of signups with teams limited to a maximum of 15 players per team at each level (Majors/Minors).

Towns will be assigned teams as designated by the board based on the total amount of Major/ Minor teams accordingly. The team assignment actually is not a change; a large amount of players and coaches have been asked to move towns at these levels for the last several years.

Those interested in coaching and volunteering must fill out and complete the background check on the website as always. Parents interested in Head coaching, please make sure you check the appropriate area when submitting the volunteer form.
