Summer Fun Ball Update

Due to declining enrollment and difficulties in finding knowledgeable volunteers to consistently attend the SFB sessions during recent SFB sessions, DLL will not be conducting a SFB session this summer. Those who are interested in a structured baseball activity this summer are encouraged to explore camps and instruction from Sam Plank's Diamond Elite Center, Diamond Sports Training, or Broad Run's Summer Baseball Camp.

DLL's 2008 Fall Registration Timeline and Fees

Important Notes:

• All registration for the 2008 Fall DLL season will take place via the DLL online player registration system.
• DLL's 2008 Fall season is open to players with a League Age of 5 to 12 inclusive who reside within DLL's boundaries. To determine a player's League Age, calculate their age on April 30, 2009. Before registering, be sure your player meets the age eligibility requirements AND meets the DLL boundary/residency requirements.
• The DLL Fall season is much more instructional in nature than the DLL Spring season. Standings are not kept, and there is no playoff season. ALL players are assigned to Divisions and teams by the DLL player agents based on a player's playing age as of April 30, 2009 and their playing experience.
• The Division of play in the Fall season is NO INDICATOR of the Division where a player will play the following Spring.
