This page captures memories that are very special to me and many others who grew up in Temple City and played Temple City American Little League Baseball in the 1960s and early 70s at Live Oak Park.

Playing Little League baseball in the 1960s was a quintessential American childhood experience, filled with camaraderie, competition, and a sense of community. In those days, Little League was the highlight of our spring, offering us a chance to bond with teammates, learn the fundamentals of the game, and create lasting memories on the diamond.

First and foremost, Little League was characterized by its simplicity. Our uniforms were fairly basic, there was no high-tech equipment, our sponsors were local businesses, we used wooden bats and many kids had well-worn gloves. The focus was on the love of the game and the joy of playing with friends.

Community involvement was also a hallmark of Little League in that era. At Live Oak Park, our games were always attended with a sizable crowd of family and friends coming out to cheer. Parents volunteered as coaches, umpires, and snack bar attendants, further reinforcing the sense of community and shared responsibility.

Moreover, Little League provided valuable life lessons beyond the baseball diamond. Players learned about teamwork, sportsmanship, and perseverance, as well as the importance of discipline and hard work. Whether we won or lost, each game was a chance for personal growth and development.

Overall, playing Little League baseball in the 1960s was a cherished rite of passage for many of us, offering us a chance to connect with our peers, learn valuable life skills, and create lifelong memories on the diamond.

Extra Special tip of the hat to Our Coaches, Parents, and Fans who cheered us on and supported us.
