The fields are groomed, and the kids of Harlem are ready to take the field. We are thrilled to invite all friends, families, and fans of Harlem Little League to our 2026 Opening Day Parade and Ceremony on Saturday, April 11, 2026.
Opening Day is a celebration of our community, our kids, and the beautiful tradition of baseball in the heart of Harlem. Please join us kick things off with a bang!
The Game Plan:
-
8:30am: Parade Line Up: We’ll begin at the Eagle Academy for Young Men of Harlem (135th and Edgecombe). Wear your team colors, bring your cheers, and join the sea of jerseys as we march through the neighborhood!
-
The Celebration: The parade leads us right into Jackie Robinson Park for a brief, high-energy opening ceremony.
-
Play Ball!: Following the ceremony, we’ll officially proclaim the season open and send our players to the various fields of Harlem for the very first games of the year.
This is a day for high-fives, community pride, and the unmistakable excitement that only Opening Day can bring. Whether you have a player on the field or just love the magic of the game, come help us cheer on the next generation of Harlem stars.
