The Board of Directors is making an effort this year to get more people involved in the decision-making process as well as provide an avenue for volunteerism in areas that you may be interested in. Below you will find a description of each of the committees we are trying to form at this time. Please review these and if you find yourself interested in one or more of these committees, visit our registration form to let us know about your interest. In the coming weeks you will be contacted by a Director to kickoff these committees so that we are fully functioning by the end of the year.
These committees are an extension of the Board of Directors and will participate in the decision making process for our league. While not able to cast votes on Board matters, input into the decision making process of the Board is key to continuing to improve our league and baseball experience for the players. We hope that you consider participating.
