Hello and farewell Suffield Little League!

The Suffield Little League Board would like to take this opportunity to thank each of you for allowing your children to play baseball or softball during the 2013 Spring Season.

Suffield All Stars
Suffield Little League has selected four All Star teams: Girls Softball 11/12, Baseball 11/12, Baseball 10/11, and Baseball 9/10. Team rosters have been posted on our website. Please come out and cheer on your Suffield teams especially at home games! We also need help at home games with field preparation, player & umpire refreshments, scorebook, pitch counter, scoreboard operator and PA announcer. If you have not worked "off" your volunteer bond, there is still time to do so!

Majors Championships, Awards Night, and "Future Stars"
On Monday, June 17th, Farm and Instructional teams will receive participation trophies, the Majors championship game will be played and the Farm "Future Stars" game will be held. Softball Farm, Baseball Farm, and Baseball Instructional teams should report to the Farm field (field #4) at 5:30 for distribution of participation trophies. The Majors Championship game will take place on the Majors field at 5:45PM between Advantech Consulting and Chem Dry. The Farm "Future Stars" game will start at about 6:00PM on the Farm field after distribution of the participation trophies. Any baseball or softball players that are not playing and not receiving a participation trophy are welcome to come to the field to watch the games, but attendance is not mandatory.

Home Run Derby Shirts
Home Run Derby T-Shirts for those that signed up online at player registration will be distributed at the picnic tables near the Farm Field from 5:30 to 6:15 on Monday June 17.

End of Year Survey
We would appreciate your feedback on your family?s experiences this season and will be sending you a link to a survey tomorrow.

Volunteer Bonds & Refunds
To encourage greater volunteer involvement by a wider range of families, Suffield Little League instituted a VOLUNTEER BOND PROGRAM this year. Families were eligible to apply for a full refund once they complete 6 hours of service to the league. A list of opportunities for service hours are posted on our web site. Please submit all volunteer bond reimbursement forms to Jen Bombard, 6 Whitfield Way, Suffield, CT 06078. Once your form is received, your check will be destroyed. You must do this by August 1, 2013. If you have not yet fulfilled your time commitment, there are still opportunities in the coming weeks to fulfill your commitment. If you have any questions, please contact Jen at SoftballAgent@suffieldlittleleague.com.
