Arden Little League Fall Ball 2010 Starting Soon!

We have some exciting changes in store for our Fall Ball Instructional Program this season!
Responding to the feedback from players and families, all levels of the Fall Ball program
(Minors, Majors and Juniors) will play exclusively at our Valley Oak fields and we will not be
actively seeking other leagues to play against each week. [Note: depending on the number of
Junior division players, travel to other leagues may still occur.]

Additionally, the season will begin and end earlier in the year. The first games will be played
Sunday, August 22nd and the last game will be October 3rd. All games will be played in the
afternoon. Practices will be coordinated at a later date. If you cannot attend a practice or
a game it is no problem. But please be sure to notify your coach for planning purposes.

For Minors, nothing will change from last year. Teams will be created and a schedule will be set
to play each other once a week on the Blue Fields…

ALL STAR VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!

Arden Little League will be hosting the upcoming All Star Tournament – the schedule is included below. We will need the following volunteers:

• Announcer (may be only backup if Tournament Director Ken Smith isn’t available)
• Official scorekeeper
• Pitch count recorder/scoreboard operator
• Runner/League representative – Takes collections, runs raffle, take care of immediate needs of the game)

(The groups listed above should be at the field at least one hour before game time. The announcer should be there 1.5 hours early if acting as an Assistant Tournament Director)

Per Day:

• 4 Set Up Volunteers – Field prep. speaker setup, etc.
  (This group should be at the fields at least 1.5 hours before game time to allow plenty of time for set up prior to warm ups. This group should be able to leave after about an hour once set up is complete)

• 4 Take Down Volunteers – Field clean, and equipment break down, etc.
  (This group should be at the fields at about 7:30 p.m. and will start after the game activities end. Take down would last about an hour.

• 4 Snack Bar volunteers. This group should be there at least 20 minutes before the first scheduled game. Four volunteer adults are preferred as paying teenager subs in the snack bar erodes our revenue. There must be at least one adult who will work the BBQ.

We really need participation from all ALL families!

Please email me at casmith@smithmooreassoc.com if you can take on one of these volunteer spots. Our first issue is to get through the games prior to the 4th of July!

Thanks,
Catherine Smith
Volunteer Coordinator
