Dear CFR
Little League Participant,
Welcome
to the 5th edition of the CFR Newsletter. The newsletter is part of
the continued effort of the CFR Executive to keep parents and players
informed about the league throughout the year. This newsletter
contains an update on our Spring Season and details on our upcoming
Summer Season.
|
It seems like we just
started our Spring Season, but it’s already time to start preparing for
our Summer Baseball Season. Summer Baseball is a more competitive
season than house-league where we play representative teams from other
leagues in interlock schedules. Our goal is to have as many players as
possible play summer baseball. If we have enough players interested, we
will have both an “A” and “B” team per division. Our “A” team
participates in the summer interlock schedule and also represents CFR
at any tournaments, including district playdowns. The “B” teams will
also play the interlock schedule but will not participate in
representative level tournament or the district playdowns. We will make
every effort to ensure any child who wants to play summer ball finds a
time. It may be a CFR team or we may secure a spot on a team in another
league if possible.
Registration fees for
summer baseball are the same as our spring fees. The long exception is
Rookie, which is $100 for the summer session.
As there is only one A
team in each level, we will be running tryouts for each division. All
players interested in summer baseball should attend these tryouts. The
schedules and head coaches are as follows:
Rookie
Rookie Head Coach is
Clark Adams.
Tryouts are 9AM
Saturday, June 11th at Frank Ryan Park and 6PM Tuesday, June
14th at JH Putman School (on Bel Air Drive).
Minor
Minor Head Coach is
Chris Kazen
Tryouts are June 21,
June 22, and June 23 at Frank Ryan Park. Practice starts at 6PM.
Major
We are still
determining the Major coach and will communicate this information once
the decision is finalized.
Tryouts are June 21 and
June 23 at Frank Ryan Park. Practice starts at 6PM.
Junior
Junior Head Coach is
Dave Dunn.
Tryouts are June 11 at Hanlon Park. Practice starts at 6PM.
Yes, it’s time to start
planning for our year end playoff tournament. Playoff tournaments will
run the weekend of June 19. The tournament schedule will be
communicated to your coaches as soon as possible. But please plan your
weekend now!
We’re pairing playoff
weekend with Fun Day for players. We’ll have a BBQ, games, and skills
competitions going on all day. Plus we’re planning a special T-Ball
event this year that is sure to captivate.
Lastly, we are calling
all bakers to bring donations for a bake sale on this weekend. Channel
your inner baker and please bring along any baked goods you are willing
to donate. If you do have goods you are willing to donate as part of
our bake sale, please bring them with you to the tournament and drop
them off at our BBQ booth to any CFR volunteer. All proceeds go to help
fund the continued operations of our league. If you have further
questions about the bake sale, please contact Sharon Drolet.
We’ve had lots of action already this year. All our
house-leagues have welcomed teams from Pinecrest, who are participating
in our Rookie, Minor, Major, and Junior house league divisions.
All our house-leagues
are in the stretch run, with teams jockeying for position as we near
the playoffs. Check out our league
standings for more details.
Thank you to our sponsors

We would
like to take this time to thank our league sponsors. Our league
relies heavily on the donations of local businesses to make our
league a success. This year CFR has several local sponsors we wish to
thank. These are Shoeless Joe’s who have provided donations and the
Morris Home Team who generously sponsored our Rookie Division.
