RLL Community,
RLL is back and getting ready for a great season. Depending on the day, the weather here in Rye seems perfect for some spring training already! Believe it or not, tryouts are only two months away (March 31st) so we write to you to bring you up to speed on the upcoming season.
As you are aware, we made many changes last season which we continue to leverage this year. The website was a great success and greatly enhanced the lines of communication. We are in the process of addressing some of the minor glitches and will constantly strive to improve effectiveness of the site. The evaluation process for the AAA and Major leagues will again be handled by the professional scouts at USA Training Centers. After continued success and positive feedback, we are again partnering with Big Al’s Coaching to help our moms and dads become better coaches. We also have taken into consideration the feedback from the Coaches evaluation forms to enhance our coaching process and ensure a better experience for your child. We strengthened our level of safety by providing each Coach with a Safety Manual, by more advanced equipment and by requiring CPR training. Our equipment was significantly updated last year, and will continue to be enhanced thanks to our sponsor Dick’s Sporting Goods. Finally, the fields have been improved during the off-season with the generous help of Rye’s own Outdoor Pride.
As with any non-profit, we are looking to the local businesses for support of our League. Each year, we try to create effective sponsorship opportunities. Last year, we began team sponsorship which was very successful and popular. This year, we hope to build on that success and offer additional sponsorship opportunities such as Scoreboard and more expansive Website naming rights. You can check out our website for Sponsorship/Donation opportunities. We thank all of our partners and encourage new partners to join us!
The on-line registration system is now open. For the first time, there will be no “in-person” registration night. We encourage you to register as soon as possible. Refer to the Registration section of the website for further instructions.
From the very beginning, our priority as a board has been to provide a positive and safe environment to foster the development and love of the game of baseball. Our commitment, as board members and parents, has been and will continue to be to put the kids first. We welcome you to the new 2012 Little League Season and look forward to a great year!
