Clay: What was the basis of the waiver and the purpose of the contract. Was it to guard against them coaching AAU while the allstars are active? ... This...
I can tell you. The "contract" that the manager/coaches must sign is just a promise that they will not participate in the other program while their LL team is...
I have tried since March, when I heard they had made additional videos, to buy one. Numerous fax's, emails and telephone calls and no result yet. Let me know...
That's what I figured but that was the reason for changing the rule. Giving waivers seems counterproductive. If they were going to do that they should have ...
My nephew plays as an 8 year old in the Shreveport, La area and the league is in turmoil. Bro-in-law is coach and board member, his brother is league...
The new rule seems like a paranoiac overreaction on the part of LL. The simpler solution is to not postpone or reschedule games to accommodate another...
Thanks for the welcome. There is some really good info flowing here and really interesting problems. I am still waiting for info ont he Big League tourney,...
I agree wholeheartedly that it was an overreaction by LL. Rescheduling games because a coach has a game elsewhere is stupid and should never happen. There are...
Missing friends is a downside but hopefully you meet some new ones there. Let me know when you have more information and maybe some list members can meet you. ...
Wow! Talk about a "peyton Place" problem! I don't see how the BOD is going to get a fair shake without repercussions! I would take it to the Regional HQ and...

...between mizzOU and OsU had a very strange 2nd and 3rd inning for mizzOU. Play 1: 1 out, R1, R3 (corners), batter hits long fly to right. R3 tags but R1 does...
Hey Jimmy. Here's my 2cents. I say no the ADA wannabe coach. He has already demonstrated himself to be a problem and the board needs to grow a spine and stand...
Okay, my penny's worth. First off, you did not state if "Joe" was a regular season manager/coach of a 13/14 or 15/16 team. I will assume that he was. It is the...
Sorry, yes he was a regular season 13/14 coach. Good point on the Waco portion. I will relay that to my Bro-in-law. Not sure how he is getting the coach spot,...
That's the point my Bro-in-law it trying to make to the board. I gave him Travis's number for a neutral opinion and he referred them to the Williamsport rep. ...
Jimmy - well, if it was a 4-3 vote by the league BOD, and he was a RS coach, I don't see much recourse. IMHO, though, "Joe" should not be allowed to coach,...
Just thought I would forward this to the list. I received it from LL today: Dear District Administrators and Little League Officials, A special page on the...

... My thoughts exactly. I love that line "I cleared it with Waco." Hey, WACO is a city, not a person. What's the person's NAME? Better yet, let's see a ...
... That ... "It's for the kids" will give "I cleared it with Waco" a run for its money for the most mis-used statement in the book. Whenever I hear it I grab...
