Tickets are $6 each and are available at the CLL concession stand. You can also purchase tickets by contacting Chris Boffa at cboffa@gmdgseniorliving.com. There are plenty of tickets, so you can buy for friends, family and neighbors as well.

2011 All-Star Information

Players/Parents League Age 9, 10, 11, and 12

Time is quickly approaching for all-stars, but first we need to determine if Charlotte Little League will be fielding all-star teams for the 2011 District 1 Tournament.  Teams may be fielded in the following divisions :
9/10 all-stars - players must have played in at least 60% of scheduled games and be league age 9 or 10,
10/11 all-stars - players must have played in at least 60% of scheduled games and be league age 10 or 11, and
11/12 all-stars - players must have played in at least 60% of scheduled games, be league age 11 or 12, AND played on a team in the major division during the 2011 season. 

The first step in the process is determining player eligibility and availability.  You will soon be receiving a letter )via email) outlining the expectations and commitment level for participants and their families. Your prompt response will be appreciated.
