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 lone 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. [Major A: Mike Wallace, Major B: Scott Meyer – June 22 Update]
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.
