2009 President's Award Winner: Mike Johnson
Congratulations and thanks to Mike Johnson for his leadership in renovating the Junior/Senior Field at Dyer and the many hours he devoted to maintaining the field during the season. This award also recognizes his continued and tireless service as an umpire for all District 2 leagues in Delaware.
2008 Michael Acker Award Winner: Benjamin Goodman
Congratulations to Benjamin for winning the Acker Award, given annually to the 15 or 16-year-old who exhibits the most outstanding sportsmanship in the Senior Division. Our 2009 Winner will be announced during Opening Ceremonies of the 2010 season.
With Sympathy
Brandywine Little League extends its deepest condolences to the Pierce family and Naamans Little League. Brett, Allison and Jimmy Pierce were tragically killed on October 3 in an automobile accident while driving to Sports at the Beach, where Jimmy, age 12, was to compete on a team comprised of players representing both Brandywine Little League and Naamans Little League.
Our league is exploring ways to support Jimmy's sister, Megan Pierce, in honor of her brother, who clearly loved baseball, and her parents, who by all accounts represented the very best of Little League parents.
Brandywine LL Mission Statement
The mission of Brandywine Little League is to assist the parents of our players in developing the qualities of character, sportsmanship, teamwork and leadership by providing a quality baseball program that emphasizes fun and safety. By advocating these qualities, our primary goal is to help develop players into productive and responsible citizens regardless of their athletic abilities.
