Differences between Wiseburn Little League & "Hawthorne-Wiseburn" Girls Softball (ASA)



image_name2

Wiseburn Community,

Wiseburn Little League Baseball and Softball has been proud to serve the Wiseburn Community with an excellent youth program which has been in place for over 56 years. We would like to ensure that we continue to bring you the quality Baseball and Softball experience that you and your family have grown accustomed to and deserve.

Recently it has come to our attention that there has been some confusion among residents attempting to sign up for Wiseburn Softball. There are two leagues bearing the "Wiseburn" name; Wiseburn Little League Baseball and Softball, and the more recently established Hawthorne-Wiseburn Girls Softball (ASA).

There is no affiliation between the two programs.

Regards,
Wiseburn Little League

Trinity Bat Company Bat Tour



image_name2

We had a great time today at the Trinity Bat Company. Thanks to Jeff McKee for showing the kids how to make a bat from a block of wood! 

Some of the bats kids were able to see were James Loney, Troy Tulowitzki, Tony Gwynn Jr, Dee Gordon to name a few. 

Kids were able to learn of the differences between Birch, Ash & Maple woods and the preferences of the professional athletes who purchase and use them. 

We may plan another one in the near future for those who could not make this one.  Stay tuned...
