About:

Beckum Stapleton Little League

 

In 1964, Rev E B Philips of Greater Galilee Baptist church asked James Beckum, a former Negro League player, to help get the neighborhood youth out of the alleys and streets, into an organized program. Starting with four teams sponsored by four inner city churches, the league has grown to 20 teams. Beckum Stapleton Little League is supported by thousands of volunteer hours from coaches, board members, umpires, scorekeepers, and concession workers.  Together we make a difference in our children’s lives. 

 

For the past 59 years, Beckum Stapleton Little League mentored roughly 25,000 youth.  Among them are local political figures, professionals, business leaders, and NBA players.  Girls and boys from 4 to 16 years old participate in 2 games and at least one practice a week for eight weeks in May and June.  Beckum teams compete in the International Little League tournament.  It is our goal to play in the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.  Beckum Stapleton Little League remains true to our mission of providing safe, challenging recreational baseball experience for inner city of Milwaukee youth.
