Even
though the seasons are changing and autumn approaches, we are turning
our attention to the 2011 baseball season with the goal of improving
our league for this year and subsequent years.
We have
some major changes to the CFR Executive for 2011, with new people in
most every seat. This is exciting as it give us an opportunity to
look at how we operate the league and look for ways to make the
Little League experience better for our players and parents.
We’ve
started by setting 4 major priorities to guide our actions for 2011
to help make a stronger league. These are:
1. Increase Enrolment. More players mean a
stronger spring program with more teams and more opportunities for
players.
2. Improve Communication. Ensure parents,
players, and coaches know what is happening in the league and receive
timely information on events that impact them.
3. Increase Sponsorship. As a not-for-profit
organization with increasing costs, sponsorship and donations are
critical to our ability to fund our operations.
4. Emphasize Coaching and Player Development.
Improving the overall talent level of all our players is good for
CFR. And better tools for our volunteer coaches helps make better
players.
By
emphasizing these 4 areas we will make the CFR experience a better
one for you and our players.
Finally,
I want to thank those of you who volunteer. Our league could not function
without the help of dedicated adult volunteers. Though we have a core
of people willing to spend time on league, CFR needs everyone's help
to make your child's experience with baseball as wonderful as it can
be. There are a number of positions still vacant and need to be
filled as soon as possible. Please don't wait for someone to approach
you to get involved. We are always looking for people to help.
Thank
you,
Pete
Loyen
President, CFR Little League
