VSLL Baseball & Softball Ages 5-16,
Molding our youth to become good citizens!
On Tuesday nite, the VSLL Senior Boys (15-16) hosted the Los Delfines ball club from the Dominican Republic. It was a great match, with the score trading hands and our hometown boys claiming a 9-4 victory in the 1st Boys of Baseball International Classic. After the game, the teams shared a pizza dinner in the Firemen's Field-house.
Stay tuned for more details in next week's Valley Stream Hearld newspaper.
Thanks to Coach John Faust VSLL and Coach Esteban Saint LDDR for arranging this terrific cultural bonding event.

Dear Little League Volunteer:
You may have heard about the tragic accident last night during a weather-related delay in a Spotsylvania County (Va.) Little League game. One child died as a result of a lightning strike, and another was injured.
We at Little League International extend our deepest sympathy to the family of Little Leaguer Chelal Matos. Our thoughts and prayers also are with the child who was injured, and with his family.
As you know, Little League International has provided extensive information to its member leagues on lightning safety, in conjunction with the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration. We are taking this opportunity to remind all parents and volunteers to review the information linked below.

Dear District Administrators and Local Little League Officials,
We have received a number of inquiries regarding last week's announcement regarding non-wood bats. Here are some additional details.
Statement Regarding Bats in Junior League Baseball
Beginning with the 2009 season, baseball bats with a diameter of 2-5/8 (two-and-five-eighths) inches are now the standard for all teenage baseball divisions (Junior, Senior and Big League).
Baseball bats with a diameter of 2-3/4 (two-and-three-fourths) inches are no longer permitted for use in the Junior League Division of Baseball. Previously, these bats could be used in Juniors, but not in Senior or Big League.
Take Fletcher Ave North over Southern State parkway overpass.
Make second right turn onto Howell Road.
School and Ball Field are at the end of Howell Road.
Park away from the field backstop to avoid foul balls.
