Southside Little League Headlines
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.
Projects still need to be completed
The Board of Directors have identified some of the projects to be completed for the 2009 season. There is work to be done on the Minor Field dugouts, painting, weeding along fences, etc. If you have ideas to improve the park or would like to lead one of these projects, contact one of the board members.
Board of Directors positions are available
Several positions are available on the Board of Directors.  If you are interested in having your voice heard, please contact the Board President or Vice-Presidents.

Opening Day 2008 - 50 Years Strong!
Opening day was an outstanding turnout. All the kids came out to enjoy the fun and festivities. The kickoff of the Little League season was a blast with lots of fun had by everyone. Some great games were played and a wonderful guest speaker. Our guest speaker was Dick Sault who had umpired for 48 years starting back at Southside in 1958. Dick also threw out the first pitch to begin the day. Later in the morning, we had Swoop from the South Bend SilverHawks come out and mingle with the kids.

One of the events held was the Home Run Derby. There were multiple levels to compete in, and the following are your winners:
