Bat-A-Thon  Fundraiser

 

We are postponing the Bat-a-Thon Fundraiser which we wanted to run this weekend until Sunday, June 3rd 

Originally, we had discussed cancelling three Major games on Sunday in order to hold the Bat-A-Thon.  Then when recent rainouts forced cancellations we discussed playing the games and holding the Bat-A-Thon at Dougherty-Guillespe field. 

 It became apparent that we couldn’t afford to cancel games with so few slots available for make-up games and logistically it would have been difficult to do both games and the Bat-A-Thon.  Therefore, we decided to play the scheduled games and move the Bat-A-Thon to another weekend. 

Therefore, we hope you understand the reason for this change.  We are hoping to have a successful fundraiser so we are looking forward to your support as we do this for the first time.  Most Little Leagues in our area use this fundraiser very effectively.  We want to take the money and invest it right back into the league and make improvements to the Minor field and help with the purchase of a John Deere Ballfield machine that would benefit everyone in the league. 

For anyone who did not get a Bat-A-Thon form, it can be found under the "Handouts" category listed on the menu at the top left hand corner of this page.

 Little League and Composite Bats - New for 2012

Little League Announces Approved List of Composite Bats for 2012 – Last season (2011) Little League Baseball announced a moratorium on baseball bats that had composite barrels due to the finding that some bats performed better as the bat was ‘broken in’.  So in effect the performance of some bats exceeded what was allowable under Little League guidelines even though the bat’s performance feel within the allowable parameters when new.  Please use the link below to find the list of allowable bats with composite barrels.
