Boys baseball division will be hosted by Cooper Baseball on April 25th

Coaches, 

The pitching clinic for coaches has been moved to the Cooper High School Gym due to the high winds forecasted for Saturday morning.  The clinic will begin at 9am.

Apologies for the late notice.

Coaches,

We are not allowed to add player names to the league uniforms even if you pay for them out of your own pocket. This is a security issue. If this is done, your kids will not be able to step on the playing field until this is resolved.

Coaches and Parents,

Opening Ceremonies for the 2010 season will take place this Sunday, March 28th at Rocky Johnson Field (just south of the University Medical Center and west of the Ronald McDonald House).

The game begins at Noon and the ceremony will take place immediately following the conclusion of the game. All girls will need to be at the park no later than 1 pm (if you are not intending to attend the full game). Texas Tech (28-4) will be opening its conference season against Iowa State and they have been gracious enough to host our league’s opening ceremony for the third consecutive season. 

All girls in their uniforms will be admitted to the game for free and parents and siblings accompanying girls in uniform will be admitted for $1 each.

Parking is available in the lots just north of Rocky Johnson Field. 

We need the girls their by 1pm so that they can be lined up and ready to move onto the field as soon as the game ends.  All teams will be introduced and get to meet the Texas Tech softball team. An autograph session will follow the ceremony as well!

This is our traditional kickoff to the season and we are excited to partner with Texas Tech again to host our opening ceremony!

Coaches, please make sure to tell all of your parents to be in attendance for a great day of softball with SPGF and Texas Tech softball!

**Coaches: Don’t forget that uniform dispersal takes place Friday and Saturday. Be sure to check the post below for times and location to get your team’s uniforms!

**PLEASE NOTE THE UPDATE**

Uniforms will be ready this week for team orders put in with initial league order. All late orders for new kids will be ready at a later date but should be ready before the beginning of the season.    Coaches will be able to pick up their uniforms Friday and Saturday from concession stand at the silver quad.  Uniforms will be distributed by age group :

Friday, March 26, 6-8 pm:  Pixie, Machine Pitch

Saturday, March 27, 10am-Noon: 10U, 12U, 14U
If you have any changes to your uniforms you have not informed Becky Castillo about, you need to do this as soon as you can.  As, noted before, uniform orders at this point will be ready at a later date.

At the special called coaches meeting for 8U and 10U age groups, it was decided to draw the divisions out of a hat in front of all coaches present rather that wait to base divisions on the pre-season tourney.

The divisions will be as such:

8U (Machine Pitch)

American

Lady Mustangs, Red Hots, Little Yankees, Dugout Divas, Super Bears, Lady Bulldogs

National 

Lubbock Stars, Ladybugs, Lady Braves, Pink Sox, Bandits

10U

American 

Rage 10U, Groundpounders, Twisters, G8trz, Mighty Pirates, Tigers, Auto Babes

National

Pink Lightning, Sandlot Sweeties, Bruisers, Starburst, Team USA, Texas Trouble, Angels

Schedules for all divisions should be ready to go this week.

The Board of the South Plains Girls Fast Pitch League will meet Sunday, 6pm, at the Home Plate Diner on University. Any interested parents or coaches are welcomed to attend.

Just a reminder that there will be a coaches meeting for 8u and 10u coaches ONLY to discuss a scheduling issue. The meeting will be at the Home Plate Diner on University.

Because of the impending weather on Saturday, the pitching clinic has been postponed to March 27th.

Because of impending weather this weekend, the scheduled League Day has been postponed until April 3rd.  We recognize that this is Easter Weekend but because there is a tournament and opening ceremony the weekend of the 27th and 28th; April 3rd is the only available date. Sorry for the change.
