We’re excited to introduce San Mateo American (SMA), a summer baseball program powered by San Mateo Little League American (previously known as 'Eagles'). San Mateo American (SMA) aims to develop players in a fun, competitive, and community-focused environment. SMA will offer an affordable alternative to club baseball, giving players the chance to keep playing with their friends while sharpening their skills and participating in memorable baseball experiences like 12U Cooperstown.
