About Being a Sponsor
Rye Little League is dedicated to building character, courage and loyalty in local area youth by providing fun, safe, and competitive baseball and softball programs. To be successful, Rye Little League requires a tremendous amount of support by the local community.
Your donation helps offset the costs of equipment, player insurance, adequate umpire training, and operational expenses, and will help supplement participation fees. Please check with your tax advisor regarding the deductibility of your donation and upon request we'd be happy to provide you a letter confirming your donation and our status as a non-profit organization.
Benefits of Being a Sponsor
Your help and support will ensure our area youth are provided a positive baseball experience. As an individual or local business involved with Rye Little League, you will benefit by being recognized for your goodwill and support of youth baseball. For less than the price of a full-page ad in any publication, you can broadcast your message, every day, to the hundreds of people who visit the Rye Little League website. The Rye Little League Sponsorship Policy consists of Little League International standards and Rye Little League standards. If at any time there is a conflict between these two sets of standards, theLittle League International standards prevail.
Little League International Standards
The Little League International standards are the standards included in the current Little League International Operating Manual. More information can be found online at www.littleleague.org.
