League Structure

Wow-lots of questions!! Welcome to the board.

1. Is your league sactioned? and by which sactioning body?

We are sanctioned by Babe Ruth. I like BR over LL because their rules about who your travel teams can play are alot less stringent. With LL, you can only play LL while with BR, you can play anybody. BR also has a tournament structure all the way up to the World Series in multiple age groups.

6. How are All-Star teams sellected?

In house All-Stars are picked ny the teams (3 each) to play in the All-Star game. Tournament (travel) teams are done by tryout.

7. Are board meeting open to everyone?

That's a good one!! I actually suggested a "Town Hall" meeting and everyone went nuts on me.

8. How much fund raising is done throughout the season?

All kids sell 30 candy bars or donate $15 to the league. We also run the concession stand and tournaments to raise $$.
