PIZZA PARTY and RAFFLE WINNERS

The Winner of the Pizza Party is B&B Technologies of Baseball 11/12 - Coaches Carda/Metz!

The Winner of the Raffle for a free registration up to $360 is Mary Ellen-Bartels!

We raised almost $6600 dollars from the smart cards! While short of our $9,000 goal for the scoreboards, we were able to offset much of that with other fundraising with the raffle, dunk tank, and fan apparel sales. We appreciate each and every one of you that helped with the fundraising efforts. Without your support, would could not continue to make BAL a better program or have better facilities for the kids.

SELECT LITE PROGRAMS:

The BAL Board approved a Select Lite Program for 2014 for both Baseball and Softball. The Board has selected the Head Coaches and it is posted on the website. Tryout dates are July 10 and 18 for Softball and July 9 and 17 for Baseball. There are no private tryouts. If your child wants to tryout, you must register by this Sunday, July 7. No walk-up registrations will be allowed. The registration link is on the website www.balonline.org

8) If my date gets rained out, do I have to make it up?

A: Yes. Sign up for future Dibs items as that rained out date is unfulfilled. If it is determined that it is impossible to make up the dates, due to lack of future games, the board has the right to waive the remaining needed hours. If there are future Dibs to claim, they must be claimed. The board will not waive hours if there was an opportunity.
