WEST MILFORD LITTLE LEAGUE
Home of the 2008 District 2
9/10 Year Old All-Star Champions
John "Chick" Choka
Mr. Little League
WMLL was proud to have Chick Choka throw out the first pitch to open Majors Double Elimination tournament play at Hillcrest Field.
Chick served our country in WWII, and began volunteering his time as a Little League coach for Wayne LL in 1959. In 1967 he was elected League president, but became known as the Director of Wayne LL—a position he still holds today. Under Chick's watch, Wayne LL became Little League World Series Champions in 1970. This is something Chick is very proud of and will never forget.
Over the years Chick has served as Umpire-in-Chief of District 2, and Assistant District Administrator—also a position he still holds today. At the age of 84 Chick is still involved in Little League, although not as heavily as in earlier years. His love for Little League Baseball keeps him going and he is enjoying every minute of it. Chick has said he "hopes to be around a few more years and continue watching the enjoyment of the kids playing Little League Baseball."
Congratulations to West Milford Little League 9/10 Year Old All Stars
