All-
The managers for Fall Little League Baseball received their rosters yesterday (8/27). Many of you have likely heard from your managers already, but if you have not yet you will shortly. Team schedules are posted on the website, and here is the general schedule:
The season starts next Saturday, September 4.
All Derek Jeter games (1st and 2nd Grade) are at 8:30.
All Goose Gossage games (3rd and 4th Grade) are at 10:30.
All Yogi Berra games (5th, 6th and 7th Grade) are at 12:30 and 2:30.
All games last one hour and 45 minutes.
We had an overwhelming response this season. Nearly 350 kids are signed up to play, which is a big increase over last season. Because of the large number of players registered, the rosters are slightly larger than you may be used to in our Spring season. As we share field space with other Fall sports we are using every available baseball field each Saturday. However, as many of your kids are playing soccer, football and other sports, the larger rosters will allow you to miss a baseball game here and there without jeapardizing the rest of the team.
We have 24 teams across the Berra, Gossage and Jeter divisions. The teams this season are named after Minor League affiliates of the Major League Baseball teams.
We're looking forward to a great season. Play ball!
Thanks,
DLL Board
