Our Neartown Majors Division Dodgers took part in this weekend's Texas Jamboree Tournament at the Pearland LL fields. It was hosted and organized through the Little League Urban Initiative Group of which Neartown is a member of the Council of Houston Innercity Little Leagues (CHILL).
They played throughtout the weekend, starting with a win for their first game on Friday night. The players did a great job of representing NLL and many thanks to the Head Coach Mark Arnold and Coach Alan Bland for getting them prepared for the post season!

At the March 19th meeting of Houston's City Council, Neartown Little League made a short presentation to give the Mayor the ball she threw out for the First Pitch of the 2012 season & a Neartown LL logo baseball cap..
All Council Members were very supportive of the League and were appreciative of the work we do to help maintain fantastic baseball fields and provide team sports opportunities for our neighborhood's kids.
Special thanks to those Board Members able to attend - Ed Gonzales, Dawn Mena, Joseph Hebert, William Keller & Cris Bera. A replay of the presentation can be found at this link - NLL was first on the Agenda thanks to Councilwoman Ellen Cohen of District C.

We are a Chartered member of Little League Baseball, Inc. and as a non-profit organization we also follow Little League's mission statement "to promote, develop, supervise, and voluntarily assist in all lawful ways, the interest of those who will participate in Little League Baseball and Softball."
Through proper guidance and exemplary leadership, the Little League program assists youth in developing the qualities of citizenship, discipline, teamwork and physical well-being. By espousing the virtues of character, courage and loyalty, the Little League Baseball and Softball program is designed to develop superior citizens rather than superior athletes.
We hope you and your children (boys & girls ages 5-12) will decide to become part of the Neartown Family and sign up to play ball with us!
