Today West University Little League is one of the largest little leagues in the country with approximately 1500 players. WULL offers baseball from our Tadpole division (5 years old) up through our Senior division (15 and 16-year olds).
WULL was started in the 1950s as part of Houston Little League. In 1954, WULL separated from Houston Little League and became West University Little League.
In the 1990s, WULL, along with several other local sports associations, purchased South Campus lands and the fields by Pershing Middle School. This foresight has allowed WULL to continue to grow. We expanded our league by merging with Braes Bayou Little League.
We also added the Challenger League, a baseball program for boys and girls ages 5 through 18 (or until the completion of high school) with physical and mental challenges. The most fundamental goal of the Challenger Division is to give everyone a chance to play baseball and have a rewarding experience, regardless of limitations.
Our league runs throughout the year with Fall and Spring Ball. Volunteerism is essential to WULL, as it is the parents who run the organization. All teams are assigned Dugout Duty in the WULL Concession Stand and run every aspect of the league.
