F.A.Q.'s for the Fall Season starting 09/08/2019
If you still have questions, please e-mail us.
What equipment does my child need?
Your son needs a baseball mitt that is age appropriate. It’s not a bad idea to get him a bat that he likes, and some of the boys love batting gloves (totally not necessary). Please clearly label all equipment so we can return it when he leaves it at the field.
Do I need to attend every game?
These kids love having parents (and especially grandparents) at the games. It’s also a great idea to volunteer to help out the coach if you know the game. Please keep in mind that it can be a bit chilly at some of the games and you might want to bring a coat since you’re not running around. Many people like to bring a chair as well. Please bring a bag for all garbage so we can help keep the fields clean.
What time are the games? What days?
Our games are all on Sundays. Preschool games are at 11:00 AM, 1st & 2nd grades at 1:45, 3rd & 4th at 3:30 and 5th/6th at 4:45.
Where are the games?
As of now , all games are at the #2 School.
What happens if there’s bad weather?
Unfortunately, we aren’t able to control the weather. If it’s absolutely pouring on Sunday morning, we’ll usually have to cancel since the fields will be muddy. Please do NOT email us asking if we’re playing or giving us suggestions. We speak to the district and the county and we must follow their leads. If the weather is horrible, we will cancel earlier, if it’s a light drizzle, we’ll wait it out. Keep in mind, when we wait it out, we lose thousands of dollars if it’s cancelled. The umpires still get paid and we pay for the fields anyway. We just want the kids to play. As soon as we make a decision, it’ll be emailed to everyone and put on the website. Our goal is always to play.
My son really wants to be with his friend. What can I do?
We do not allow friend requests in the league. I’m sure you can understand the nightmare that would result from having hundreds of kids requesting their friends while trying to keep teams fair. You can always email the league and ask - be sure to include the name, grade, current team, and requested team.
What are the dates of the games?
The games are set to start on 09/08/2019 and ends on 11/24/2019. If the weather is really nice in December, we'll try to play a few extra games. Our goal is always to play. Cold weather won't stop us unless it's very windy, and a light drizzle won't stop the games either.
I have more questions.
Please e-mail us at info@5tll.com. We try to get back to everyone within a reasonable amount of time.
