WELCOME TO 2022 SPRING BALL
Dear Friends –
It is my pleasure to announce that registration is now open for all divisions of baseball and softball for the Spring 2022 season at West LA Little League. Registration is accommodated on a first come, first serve basis and in recent years our league has sold out quickly so please don’t delay! Additionally, I am thrilled to share that thanks to the tremendous generosity of our community we will once again be offering a scholarship program available to all families in our community. For more information, please feel free to contact me directly at [email protected].
I would also like to add one additional thought on community and engagement. This year our Board of Directors voted to reduce the cost of Upper Division Baseball (Machine Pitch Division through Majors Division) by 20%. This decision was not reached easily as our league relies heavily on your registrations to fund our ongoing operations and support the experience we love so much at West LA Little League. With that said, our Board is committed to advancing play-equity and we know that a great many families in our community will be helped by the lower cost.
With that said, I need to ask for your help again. The decision to lower prices for everyone means that we also need your support now more than ever. As part of your registration you will be asked whether you can afford to make an additional donation to the league beyond your program registration fee. Please do and make West LA Little League part of your family’s annual giving this holiday season. Your donations go directly toward making our Board’s action to reduce registration costs a sustainable decision. Your generosity also permits us to maintain our park and its facilities, making Bad News Bears Field the most special place for our kids to play baseball and softball anywhere in Los Angeles. Thank you for your consideration and ongoing support. When you donate to our community-based sports programming, you are making an investment in your friends, your neighbors and your home. And that is a very special gift to be able to give. Thank you again.
On behalf of the entire Board of Directors of West LA Little League, we cannot wait to see you back in just a few short weeks. Dust off the cleats, loosen your arms and take some swings - - - It’s almost time for us to PLAY BALL!
Looking forward to seeing you all at the fields soon,
Marc Lipson
