District 1 Softball All Stars
Hosted by North Everett Little League
June 27th-July10th
This year at NELL we have been given the opportunity to showcase our NELL spirit and host the 2009 Softball All Stars Tournament.
This is a District run Tournament but we at NELL need to maintain our fields before and after the game, keep score, announce, and of course staff the infamous NELL concession stand.
All proceeds of the Tournament go directly to NELL! 
This is not a SOFTBALL event this is a NELL event, & we need all NELL parents, coaches and anyone else willing to pitch in!
Weekend games start @ 9am, with 5 each day & weeknight games @ 5pm with 2 each night. Games last approximately 90 minutes!

Gamut 360 Aquasox Fundraiser
This is our ONE and only NELL fundraiser, the generous folks at Gamut 360 donate their garage on Broadway for us at NELL to staff at every Aquasox home game, with 100% of the proceeds going to NELL!
This fundraiser helps us keep our Registration costs low and ensures our ability to continue to offer scholarships to the youth of Everett.
WE NEED YOU!
Check the dates & times of the Aquasox games & get involved!
Please contact Melissa if you can volunteer your time.

Volunteer ID's
Everyone on the field at this point should have a photo ID, this includes practices, warm ups and the dug-outs if you do not have a photo ID you are not permitted to be on the field. (Unless you have spoken to Melissa personally). To save yourself and I the embarassment of having to eject you, please please if you do not have an ID stay off the field and out of the dugout, just enjoy the game!
If you have not had your picture taken you cannot be on the field this is especially the case at tournaments District WILL enforce this strictly!
Food Handler's Cards
It's JKA time folks we're starting up the grill and getting those famous NELL burgers cooking for all the visiting League's to enjoy. We have a Roster started at the concession stand, there are plenty of opportunities to come out and experience our renouned JKA Tournament and to support NELL. Please come down and sign up for a session at the Grill!
Thank you too to all of you for coming out this season and working the stand I've been in there personally and it's been a blast! Its not too late to get your card! Cards are good for 2 years so please check yours for expiration.

Equipment Update
Beginning with the 2009 season, baseball bats with a diameter of 2 5/8 inches are now standard for all teenage baseball divisions (Junior, Senior & Big League). Baseball bats with a diameter of 2 3/4 inches are no longer permitted for use in the Junior League Division of Baseball. Previously these bats could be used in Juniors, but not Seniors & Big League.
Little League depends on adults
...Little League, though, involves adult volunteers putting in countless hours of planning, scheduling, bookkeeping, fundraising, recruiting coaches, maintaining fields and doing jobs most players' parents never think about.
