ASTON VALLEY LEAGUE HISTORY

The Aston Valley Baseball League was formed in 1962 by Mr. Sam Erb. At that
time, Aston was a small but growing community. Two teams, one from Aston Manor
and one from Valley View, played on the original field located on the Valley
View Playground. As the township grew, teams from Woodbrook, Aston Farms,
Village Green Knolls, and Green Ridge were added.

In 1973, township commissioners assisted in the construction of the baseball
fields off Weir Road where the bulk of the league fields are today. The teener
division was added in 1978 with the School Board allowing the league to use two
fields at Sun Valley. Buggy Field at Sun Valley High School was constructed in
conjunction with Penn Delco School District and was completed for use in 2001.

Aston Valley Baseball League started with 2 teams, 30 children and 6 adults. It
has since grown into approximately 39 teams, 400 children, 140 coaches and
managers, a 13 member executive board, and an untold number of parental
volunteers.

Today about 400 area kids are involved in our Cal Ripken/Babe Ruth League. 
Every year we have a number of our teams win our District Championships and make
it onto the Pennsylvania State Tournaments.  Our teams also participate in many
local tournaments during the summer.  Aston Valley also runs a Fall Baseball
league for our kids and surrounding areas to help improve their baseball skills
and have fun.  Every year Aston Valley hosts a 2 week baseball clinic in the
summer.  This clinic is run by Billy Wright and the Aston Valley Knights Delco
Men's Baseball team and provides a additional valuable training to our kids of
Aston.

Weir Park, home of our Cal Ripen program has gone thru several changes over the
years.  In recent years, the Township built a new bridge crossing over the
creek, lights and pitching mounds were added to our batting cages to allow
additional practice time and options.  The minor and major fields were
refurbished with all new infield and outfield grass and new fencing around our
major field.  A pavilion was added outside the major field and a walk of fame
was added to the walkway.
