Southside Little League Headlines

The season has started and things are in full swing.

Welcome to Southside!
 

Fundraising News - Brax Spirit Cups:
Fundraising update...Notre Dame cups sold the most followed by the Cubs...GO IRISH! Thanks to all that participated. Randy Ross was the top seller and I must say the T Ball division kicked butt!
The cups will arrive May 21. They will be sorted in the clubhouse on May 22. ONLY those helping sort on the 22 should be in the clubhouse. On Wed. 23 you can come to the clubhouse from 5:30 to 8:00p to pick up your order. All leftover orders will be distributed to the team moms. Please let Emily Johnson know via facebook or 217-3135 if you can help sort cups on the 22nd.

Thanks, Emily (Fundraising Board Member)
 

9 & Under Tournament - Memorial Day Weekend

Southside will play host to a 9 and under tournament on Memorial Weekend. This is a big fundraiser for the park, as it brings in lots of other area teams, parents, and fans. We need your help to make it a great weekend. If you can volunteer at all this weekend, please show up Friday Night at 6pm for the kick-off games. Please also help to get the word out to coaches, parents, and players to come out a watch a great weekend of baseball! Areas of need:

  • Concession Stand

  • Feed Pitching Machines / Umpire

  • Scoreboard

  • Scorekeepers
 

Important Information for Parents:

  • When dropping your child for game or practice, please inform coaches if you will be leaving the park. Also leave a phone number where you can be reached in case of emergency.

  • Please do not enter the field or dugouts during the game. The coaches and managers already have their hands full with all the players. Unless you are specifically asked to help in the dugout, leave that for the players, coaches and Team Mom/Dad. If you are going to be on the field or in dugout helping out, you need to fill out a volunteer form.

  • Each team is asked to supply concession stand workers for one week (Monday - Thursday) and one Saturday. Each family is requested to work 2 shifts. Check the Schedule here and sign up with your team parent (additional sign-up forms can be found on the handouts page). Remember everyone at the park is a volunteer.  We need everyone’s help to keep the concession stand running smoothly.  NOTE: When you work 2 concession shifts, you will receive a $20 registration rebate on closing day.

  • Make sure your child has water to drink and dresses approximately for the weather. Jackets and sweatshirts can easily be removed if it gets warms, but it's difficult to play if you're frozen.

Important Dates:

  • Mon., May 21 - Fundraising Meeting, Clubhouse, 5:30pm

  • Wed., May 23 - Pick Up Brax Spirit Cup Orders, Clubhouse, 5:30 - 8pm

  • Memorial Day Weekend - 9 & Under Tournament - all weekend

  • Sat., June 2 - Picture Day, all day, schedule TBA

  • Fri., June 8 - Family Night, Times and More Info TBA

Wanted - Fundraiser Committee Members:
We are in need of more parents to join the Fundraiser Committee. Committee members attend a low-key monthly meeting to help to decide the details of fundraisers we complete each year. We also need helpers to do 50/50 raffles throughout the season. Please let Emily Johnson (Fundraising Board Member) know if you are interested in helping out. or come to the next Fundraising Meeting on Monday, May 21st in the Clubhouse.

Join the Team!
Like all Little League Organizations, Southside Little League is run completely by volunteers.  There are several places where your talents can benefit our park. Volunteers are needed to help cut grass, maintain the diamonds and common areas, coach, umpire, manage projects, recruit volunteers, become scorekeepers, work the concession stand, serve on the Board of Directors, help with one of the Committee Teams, and many other areas. If you can give even a few hours of your time, please contact one of the board members. Make sure you have a Volunteer Application Form on file at the park.
