North Mission Viejo Little League (NMVLL) is a nonprofit, 100% volunteer run youth baseball organization proudly serving the community of Mission Viejo since 1975. Our mission is to provide an inclusive environment where we can positively impact the lives of our players and families with a quality youth sports program that teaches and develops fundamental skills that build stronger individuals and communities. We are committed to player development both on and off the fields by promoting core values such as respect, teamwork, sportsmanship, courage, effort, commitment, and a lasting respect for the game of baseball.

At NMVLL we have two seasons:  Spring and Fall.

The Spring Season is our most competitive program.  Typically, registration begins in October, with player evaluations in January, teams formed in February and play from March until late May.

Once the season begins, teams usually average 3-4 games or practices each week, which may include Saturdays.  We typically try to avoid Sunday games.

There is usually post-season competition like the Tournament of Champions and Little League All-Star programs, which involve players over League Age 8 and teams AA and higher.  There is never a post-season for T-Ball, Coach Pitch, or Single A. These programs are at the behest of the Board and no player is guaranteed a spot on post-season teams.  Post-season play usually begins in early June and depending on how far a team advances goes into July.

Our Fall Ball program is a more relaxed baseball experience and focuses on fundamentals.  If your child is new to Little League, the Fall Ball program is a great way to get them started on the right foot.  Fall Ball teams typically meet just one day a week, with an optional weekend day practice. Weekend Fall Ball games are usually on Sunday to allow soccer teams to have the fields on Saturdays.

Fall Ball registration usually happens over the summer with play & practice beginning in September and ending in November before Thanksgiving.

You can learn more about how to register a player by scrolling down the page.

Registration Fees vary by season and are at the discretion of the Board. 

Spring Ball fees are higher and generally cover your player’s full uniform (jersey, socks, belt and cap), and an end-of-season keepsake.  
Fall Ball fees are lower and cover a practice jersey and hat. 

Your player is responsible for bringing their personal baseball equipment (Little League approved-bat, batting helmet and fielding glove).  We also suggest that your player always have plenty of water and sunscreen.  A baseball backpack or gear bag is recommended to carry equipment and extras to and from the fields.

The best way to stay informed of open registrations is to follow NMVLL on Instagram and Facebook as we will always post updates there, as well as on the NMVLL.org home page.

We have recently move to a new sports management software, Sports Connect, for our league communication, registration and payments.  If you are on our mailing list you will receive update emails on registration windows.  Otherwise, you will need to monitor NMVLL.org or NMVLL on Instagram and Facebook for open registrations.

Our registration windows are open for at least 3 weeks and for some seasons we do offer early-bird pricing.  

Since there are three leagues in Mission Viejo alone, it is important you confirm your correct league by using the Little League Finder.  

League eligibility is determined in two ways:

1. Home Residence - If you live within the area of the boundary map, NMVLL is your league. 

2. School Enrollment - If you do not live within the area of the boundary map, but your athlete’s school is located within this area, you are eligible for NMVLL once the league verifies that the school your player attends is an NMVLL-located school.

There is a School Enrollment verification form in the Helpful Documents section.

Should you have any questions, please email to review the options available for play in NMVLL. 

You can find more information about our league by looking in the Documents section under the About Us section.

Your player’s league age is determined by the Little League Baseball®  Age Charts.  The dates for baseball determines the division in which your Little Leaguer will play this season. The Age Determination Date for a Little League Baseball player is the actual age of a child on August 31 of the current year.

Division assignment is based on player evaluations (for League ages 6 and above - Division Single A and above) and at the discretion of the league's Player Agent, but we will do our best to accommodate your wishes.

All Home games for NMVLL are held at the Marty Russo Youth Athletic Park on Olympiad across from the main entrance to Lake Mission Viejo.   The address is 22056 Olympiad Rd., Mission Viejo CA 92692.

We share this facility with South Mission Viejo Little League.

For our Upper Divisions (AAA, Majors, Juniors)  there are away games but almost always within the borders of District 68 in Southern Orange County.
