BASEBALL BAT INFORMATION

 

Remember Baseball Bats for 4-12 year olds can only be 2 1/4 inch in diameter.  The Bat Performance Factor (BPF) for non-wood bats in the divisions for 12 years old and below is 1.15.  Prior to buying a new bat for the 2012 season, please make sure that it meets the BPF.   Bats for 13-18 year olds can be 2 5/8 in Diameter.   Little League is changing the requirements on 2 5/8 Diameter bats for the 2012 season.  Please check with http://www.littleleague.org/ prior to buying a 2 5/8 bat for the 2012 season.  Bats for Senior and Big League have to be a -3 weight.  Junior League has no weight restriction.

 

LITTLE LEAGUE BANS COMPOSITE BARREL BATS!!!

Effective immediately, Little League International has banned the use of any Baseball Bat that has not received a waiver which is constructed with a composite barrel for all divisions of play.  For a list of Composite Bats that have received the waiver go to http://www.littleleague.org/learn/equipment/approvedcompbats.htm

*ATTENTION ALL VOLUNTEERS*

To remain in compliance with Little League Int'l rules, Sierra Vista Little League is required to obtain new Volunteer Applications & perform background checks on ALL potential volunteers every year, regardless of previous service with SVLL.  If you are interested in volunteering, in any capacity, please complete and turn in your application as soon as possible.  Remember, our league cannot run without your support!

 

*COACHES*

We must have your 2012 Volunteer application no later than February 10, 2012 in order for you to be considered for a position during the Spring 2012 season.  All applications must be completed IN PERSON & you will need to provide us with a photocopy of your valid photo I.D.  There will be no exceptions!

 

Please remember........

The Sierra Vista Little League is a tobacco free league.  If you choose to smoke or chew, please do so at least 50 yards away from the fields. 

No swinging bats or warming up players is permitted outside of the field.  This is a safety rule that must be followed.  We don't want anyone getting hurt out there. :)

 

Our Umpires are all volunteers and we need MORE of them!  Please, take it easy on them.  They will make mistakes from time to time.  Please treat them with the courtesy and respect that they deserve and that you would expect if you were making the call (even if it's a bad one).  If you are interested in helping them out, please contact Robin Murray, Umpire in Chief @ 234-7160 or by E-Mail rmurray23@cox.net.
