About this fundraiser:

WHAT IS HIT-A-THON??

On Sunday, March 23rd, Wiseburn Little League will hold its Annual Hit-a-Thon event. This event is our largest fundraiser and a fun day where our players get to show off their skills and compete for prizes. With over three hundred players and volunteers involved, the Hit-A-Thon will be a fun event for all!

Wiseburn Little League aims to continue improving its facilities to provide the best overall "Little League" experience for our players and families. To continue making improvements, Wiseburn Little League seeks funding beyond registration fees and sponsorships. Please know that no amount is too small.

For example, funds raised during the 2024 Hit-a-Thon allowed us to redo the infield at the DaVinci North Baseball Field this winter, touch up the Wiseburn Middle School Baseball Field, install new turf home plate areas at both backstops at Aviation Elementary School, purchase two pitching machines for the upper divisions, and construct batting cages at both Wiseburn Middle School and DaVinci North.
