Tryouts February 20th/21st

Beginning back in the 2008 season, according to the change to Regulation V, all league age twelve year olds that do not have a District approved Major League Waiver on file with the league before the start of the Major Division draft will be assigned to a Major League Team.  The assignment will be made either via the draft (if they attended tryouts), or via the blind draw “hat pick”.

Coles Little League is looking for companies and individuals who want to help support our ballplayers by becoming Team Sponsors. Besides the gratitude of the players on your team, and the knowledge that you are helping to equip and outfit players throughout the league, for your $350.00 tax deductible contribution you'll get a banner hanging on the outfield fences of either Cupka or Rusciolelli Fields at Independent Hill Community Park for both the Spring and Fall 2008 Little League seasons, along with Opening Day publicity during our ceremonies and in the Opening Day program.  If you're interested in becoming a Coles Little League Sponsor, you can download a copy of the sponsor's agreement form by clicking here, or clicking on the headline  

Coles Little League Complex Construction Is Well Underway

The construction project to build the new baseball/softball fields in Hellwig Park is well underway.  The site has been cleared, levelled, and sculpted to resemble a baseball complex.  Work has begun to deliver water and electrical service to the site as well.  The light poles have already been erected (yes, lighted ballfields will be a reality), fences ARE in place, and the outfield sod has already been laid down.  Initially, there will be four ball diamonds on the site.  Two baseball diamonds with 225 foot fences, one softball diamond, and one ninety-foot baseball diamond.  All four of these fields will have lights!  Aditionally, there will be an electrical outlet behind the pitcher's mound on each field, and each dugout will have a roof.  The project will include parking, lighted walkways, and at least one indoor restroom facility.  Also, the landscaping is well underway.  Currently, the league is working with the Park Authority to build a central structure for the Snack Bar, equipment storage, restrooms, and a meeting room.  The projects may also include a restroom facility at/near the complex entrance for use by the soccer folks and general park patrons.  Click here to view the Park Authority Master Plan for the park.

Also, the Prince William County Park Authority PR department has started a blog about new projects in the Park Authority; and they've just written a post about the Little League field construction behind Hellwig. Here’s the link.: http://www.pwcparks.org/PressRoom/ParkChatter/tabid/536/Default.aspx.  Everyone is welcome to post comments, although the Park Authority folks will moderate them before they go up on the site.
