Hi RWCLL Tee Ball Families,

This Saturday is going to be a fun day at Red Morton Park. 

Historically we have not had games on Picture Day / Hit A Thon Day, but that changes this season.  

We will use a layout similar to what we did on Opening Day.   Be sure to take a look at your team shcedule.   You should have 3 entries for Saturday, in no particular order: 

- Game

- Hit A Thon

- Pictures

Please read the previously sent out emails re:  Hit A Thon pledges/raffle prizes, and how to order pictures and print & bring the receipt. 

If you have any questions, please let me or your Manager know.

Thanks,

Oak Barrett

RWCLL Tee Ball Coordinator

The bottom of this message will have a map of the fields we will use on Saturday.

Hi RWCLL Tee Ball Community:

A quick update on our 2022 Season.  We are currently up to 12 teams, which is terrific.  I really appreciate all of those who have already registered to Manage/Coach/Volunteer.   Each team will need at least 4 volunteers to run a smooth game. 

Please register at this link: https://www.leagueathletics.com/Registration/Restrictions.asp?RegID=309851&n=61829&org=rwcll.org

I have received many questions over the past few weeks regarding  equipment, fields, schedules , and have been documenting them at this page (I have also copied the info below):

https://www.leagueathletics.com/Page.asp?n=58973&org=rwcll.org

Uniforms are expected to be in by next week, and colors are randomly assigned to Managers. 

Each RWCLL player is eligible for a free pair of baseball pants at Goetz. Bros. Sporting Goods in San Carlos.  Please be sure to pick these up before Opening Day on March 12th.

Thanks,

Spring 2022 Season Information:

Late Signups:  As of February 28, 2022 there are several open spots for Tee Ball.  

Please note, rosters were created and practices began the week of February 14th. 

Buddy Requests might not be fulfilled at this point in time.

Depending on available roster spots, you might be placed on a Wait List until we have enough players and Manager/Coach to form additional teams.

Opening Day First Game:  Saturday March 12, 2022 at Roosevelt or Henry Ford.  Start times will vary by team, and will be reflected on the teams schedules.

Final Game:  TBD, typically RWCLL playing season coincides with the last week of public school which could be the first or second weekend of June.

Equipment:

Helmets: RWCLL is asking all players, regardless of Division, to provide their own helmet. This helps with the efficiency of games/practices, and reduces the spread of germs, etc... If obtaining a helmet creates a hardship, please contact the Tee Ball Player agent.  RWCLL will make sure each player has access to the equipment they need.

Bats: It is encouraged each player has their own bat, but RWCLL will include several bats in the team equipment bag for player use.
Typical bat size for Tee Ball is is 24"-26".  

Cleats: Cleats are encouraged (soccer cleats are fine), as it gives the kids more traction on the dirt infields we play on

Glove/Mitt: Required for each player. (typical size is 8.5" - 10")

Batting Gloves: optional

Hat, Jersey, Belt, Socks: will be provided by Redwood City Little League

Pants:  A free pair of baseball pants are provided to each registered player, but you will need to pick them up at Goetz Bros. Sporting Goods   1125 Industrial Rd Suite E, San Carlos, CA 94070

Welcome RWCLL 2022 Tee Ball Families,

Just a quick note as we roll into the New Year.   Tee Ball is currently at ~80 registered athletes, and I expect this to grow by 30+ in the next six weeks or so.   Please continue to pass along the word to friends, neighbors and classmates that Tee Ball registration is still open.

We currently only have 3 registered Managers and 5 registered Coaches for the 2022 season. 

I would like to keep Tee Ball rosters at 10 players or less, so there is an immediate need for 5 more Managers based on existing registration count.   If you would like to register to help Manage or Coach, please fill out the form found towards the bottom of this link:  https://www.leagueathletics.com/Registration/Default.asp?n=61829&org=rwcll.org  

Managing Tee Ball is pretty simple, no baseball experience is required.  Little League International has published a great week by week practice guide that can be followed, and I will be hosting a Coaches Clinic as we get closer to the season.   The key is to keep the little ones moving, safe and having fun.

Time commitment: 

- one ~45-60 minute weekday practice

- one 60 minute Saturday game

Practices/Games typically held at Roosevelt and Henry Ford Elementary Schools.

Coaches and Assistant Coaches will be needed as well.  The key to a smooth running Tee Ball game is a minimum of 4 coaches/volunteers per team.   Please use the link above to registeter as a Coach or Volunteer

- Manager (runs the team/practices/games, responsible for most communication, makes lineup, etc)

- Coach (available to help at most practices/games, may take on some of Manager duties if needed)

- Assistant Coach (available to help at some practices/games, takes direction from Manager/Coach)

- Registered Volunteer (can help organize players in dugout, snack schedules, help with field maintenence)

Please consider volunteering in some capacity at the sign up link above.

Rough Season Timeline:

- Mid February, assemble team rosters

- Late February, publish team rosters

- Early March, begin practice

- Mid-Late March, begin games

- Early June, end of season.

If you have any questions, please reach out to me directly.
