Los Altos-Mountain View Pony Baseball

Pony Division continues to introduce the maturing players to the complete game of baseball. The diamond is extended to 80 feet and the pitching mound is 54 feet (distances which are better suited to the players' developing arms).

Team Coaches “draft” players based on tryout results. Teams from LA-MVPB participate in an inter-locked league with teams from other South Bay PONY Baseball leagues. Each player receives the use of a full baseball uniform and receives individual and team photos.
The Pony Division regular season usually starts on the same day as the younger divisions, typically the 3rd or 4th weekend in March. Each team plays about 20 games, with the Regular Season ending in mid-June.

A select number of Pony players are invited each season to participate in post-season “All Star” play. For more information, visit the Post-Season Programs page.

High School Freshmen who are league age 14 can join Pony Division at the conclusion of the High School season, usually in late April. PONY National rules require a player to play at least half of the regular season games to qualify for post-season play, but this rule is waived for High School players. Alternatively, as of the 2009 season High School Freshmen may opt to play a complete season Colt Division.
