TRYOUTS... SNOW UPDATE (2/6/10 5:00 PM)
2/6/10 5:00 pm: Tryouts are cancelled for Sunday also. They are being moved to Saturday, February 13, following the original schedule. The roads leading to the field had not been touched as of 4:00 pm on Saturday, and there are certainly no guarantees that they will be cleared in time on Sunday. We thank you for your cooperation, patience, and flexibility.
2/5/10 12:45 pm: The tryouts scheduled for Saturday, have been rescheduled due to the impending severe weather. We are moving the tryouts to Sunday, February 7, beginning at 11:00 am. Please refer to the chart below to determine the time that your child needs to be at tryouts on Sunday. Please remember that “League Age” is the child’s age as of April 30, 2010.
While we are going to do everything possible to get the tryouts in on Sunday, we will continue to monitor the storm throughout the day on Saturday. If the storm turns out to be more severe than forecasted, we may have to move the tryouts to next Saturday. We hope to have a final determination as to Sunday’s status by 5:00 pm on Saturday afternoon. At that time, we will once again send an email and post the details on the website.
2/5/10 12:30 am: The optional workout for 10s, 11s, and 12s scheduled for Friday night has been cancelled.
The Executive Board will continue to monitor the forecast through the morning on Friday, and make a decision regarding Saturday’s tryouts by early afternoon. If we decide to postpone tryouts, they will be held on Sunday, February 7 beginning at 11:00 am. We will follow the same schedule as what was planned for Saturday with a two-hour difference. The new schedule will be posted if we cancel Saturday.
Depending on the severity of the storm, there is the possibility that we will be unable to have tryouts on Sunday also. If that is the case, we will move tryouts to Saturday, February 13, following the original schedule.
We will continue to update the website and send emails, as necessary. We appreciate your patience as we try to make the best of a difficult situation.
2/3/10 6:00 PM: We are aware of the possibility that we may have to reschedule tryouts on Saturday due to weather conditions. The Executive Board is currently discussing the different scenarios available to us for reschedule dates. As soon as we work out the details, we will send an email with all of the reschedule information, should we have to reschedule. Details will also be posted here on the website.
We will update the website as early as possible on Saturday morning with the status of the tryouts.

HTRBA Announces 50/70 Program for 12 & 13 Year Olds
Little League International recently announced the creation of a new baseball division that will allow 12 and 13 year olds to play on a 50/70 field. HTRBA Little League has agreed to take part in the pilot program in 2010.
For those of you that are not familiar with 50/70, it is "regular" baseball played on a field with a 50 ft. pitchers mound and 70 ft. bases. By comparison, Little League has a 46 ft. mound and 60 ft. bases, and a regulation size field has a 60 ft. 6 in. mound and 90 ft. bases. The primary goal of 50/70 is to ease the transition from the Little Legue size field to a regulation size field. With few exceptions, the rules of 50/70 are the same as "regular" baseball... leading is allowed, pitchers can pick off runners, and so on.
For the 2010 season, 12 year olds will be eligible to play both Little League Majors and 50/70. We will also be inviting 13 year olds back to participate. HTRBA is looking to put together a team (possibly two, if we have enough interest) to play other Little Leagues on Saturday and Sunday evenings. Right now, we are just trying to gauge the interest in participating in this program.
If you would be interested in your son possibly playing in this division for HTRBA, please contact Jeff West via email at jersey737@verizon.net or by phone at 609.584.9126. It would be appreciated if could reply to Jeff by Saturday, February 20. More details will be supplied as they become available.
