Welcome to the 2009 CYAA baseball season.

Please see the post below regarding the Mandatory Parent-Only Meeting.

We are asking that everyone bring in a non-perishable food item that will be
donated to a local food cupboard.

And, for those of you returning, I am sure that you may be finding out that your
kids have outgrown their uniform pants, cleats, and even mitts. I, myself have
2 or 3 pairs of cleats and a bunch of baseball mitts that my kids have outgrown.
Please do not throw them out. Bring them to the meeting and we will have a box
to collect those items that your kids have outgrown. And, if a family is having
some difficulty, we will be able to provide them some assistance. We don't want
to have any worries on the fields... only fun.

The CYAA Board looks forward to welcoming back our returning familes and to
meeting all the new families that are joining us this year.

We are also looking to fill some volunteer vacancies so please do not hesitate
to ask what you can do.

We will see you next week... Enjoy the great weather

CYAA League Secretary

This year CYAA is requiring at least one parent from each family to attend a mandatory parent only meeting before the start of the 2009 baseball season.

We will be giving you updates on the field, going over general rules, and discussing and signing the Code of Conduct. A signed Code of Conduct is a requirement of every parent, coach, and player.

This meeting is a requirement in order for your child(ren) to participate in the league.

At the end of the meeting, we will also be taking any candy money that needs to be turned in.

If you have a child in T-Ball and another in one of the other leagues, you only need to attend one meeting. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Brian Labigan at 663-0030 or Joan Gilman at 865-5288.

Changes to the CYAA Website are coming. Any ideas are welcome. What would you like to see on it? We have noticed a lot of cameras at the CYAA events and if you can forward any photos you'd like to share, we'll get them up. You can send them via an attachment to an email to cyaabaseballwebmaster@yahoo.com or send a message to me to request other arrangements. If you feel your team or individual player is under-represented, this is your chance to ensure that there are more photos to choose from. You can also, at any event, request that a photo be taken of you and your player or team.
