Palos Verdes Little League Registration Opens Soon For Spring 2027!

Elaine Carlson — Tue, 20 Oct 2026 00:20:17 +0000

Palos Verdes home owners will be able to register their children to play Little League next spring (2027) starting on November 1, 2026. This registration period will end on December 31, 2026, so it is important to sign up as soon as possible before we get into the holiday rush. The PVLL’s REGISTRATION site for the 2027 Spring season will allow you to register your child/children, make your snack shack deposit, and sign-up to volunteer.

Palos Verdes Little League is divided into 4 separate Little League divisions. You will need to know your child’s 2027 “League Age,” which is based on their age as of August 31, 2026. When you enter your child’s birth date, their league age is automatically calculated and your child will be registered for that division. Please note, PVLL strives to be flexible in assigning your child to a division that is most appropriate based on their ability. If you believe your child should play down a division you can request to do so during the registration process. Playing up a division cannot be requested, rather, this will be determined during the player evaluation day in January 2027.

2027 DIVISIONS:

TEE BALL (ages 4 – 6)
FARM (ages 6 – 7)
MINORS (ages 8 – 9)
INTERMEDIATES (ages 10 – 11)
MAJORS (age 12)
Each family is required to make a snack shack deposit per child via CHECK once the season begins. If you work TWO SHIFTS PER CHILD at the snack shack throughout the season, your deposit check will be voided. If you do not work the required shifts, your check will be cashed in May 2027. If you wish to forego your snack shack duties altogether, you can make your deposit now electronically during registration. This deposit will be non-refundable and you will not be required to work at the snack shack during the 2027 season.

For more information or to start the registration process when it opens, go to http://www.pvlittleleague.com/home.

Los Serenos de Point Vicente Offers Ocean Trails/Sunrise Trails Hike 2026!

Elaine Carlson — Fri, 16 Oct 2026 01:49:17 +0000

On Saturday, October 17, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m., Los Serenos de Point Vicente will be taking hikers on a docent led tour through Founders Park, down the switch backs on the Sunset Trail, along the beach, then back up to the Sunrise Trail to the Park. Along the way you’ll see a plaque dedicated to the founders of Rancho Palos Verdes and a plaque dedicated to the site of the first Japanese American farmhouse built in 1905 by Kumekichi Ishibashi.

Although this walk is less than a mile, it is a special opportunity to view some of the prominent geological features of the Peninsula including the marine terraces and effects of erosion as evidenced by features on the exposed cliff face. The walk up the Sunrise Trail will take you through the “graben” (German for ditch or grave) that is the repaired landslide area from the 1999 landslide. This whole area is home to many animals including snakes, lizards, fox, raccoons, opossums, cottontail rabbits, and a large variety of birds.

Park at Trump National – to the left of the club house in the public lot at end of Ocean Trails Drive. (Ocean Trails Reserve) Trump National Golf Course is located at One Ocean Trails Drive, Rancho Palos Verdes.

For more information regarding the calendar of events, visit Los Serenos de Point Vicente site at http://www.losserenos.org, or call (310) 377-5370.
