Division Ages Changed
On July 10, the Board voted to realign our age groups to be more in line with other leagues and make our league better. Beginning in 2009, Instructional T-Ball will be 4 year olds only, Ages 5 and 6 will play advanced Tball and 7 year olds will move up to play Rookie with the 8 year olds. The League age is determined by how old your child is on April 30, 2009. This means that last year's (2008) 6 & 7 year olds will all move to Rookie.

Coaches
Babe Ruth is requiring that all coaches be certified for 2009. The course is online and costs $19.95. It takes 2 or 3 hours but you can work on it and come back as many times as you want. It is a good course and will help you teach the game better & make it more fun. Our children are worth the investment. They look up to you as their leader so act like one. The certification is for life, so you only have to take it once. For those who say " I won't pay to coach", the Association pays more than $20 for your shirt & hat.
