DIVISIONS FOR 2009 - "More Kids Playing More Baseball"
USSSA is always looking for new ways to get "more kids playing more baseball". For 2009, the Lake Area League will continue to offer the following programs:
1) 7 & Under T-Ball/Coach Pitch - The 7 & Under will now have its own division. It will be a transition division from T-Ball to Coaches Pitch. It will be a combination of T-Ball and Coaches Pitch to enhance the child's learning experience at this stage of development.
2) 8 & Under Coaches Pitch Division - Because of the growth in participation, the 8 & Under will now have its own division.
3) 9 & Under Kids Pitch Modified Stealing - The 9 & Under will have its own division. It will be a transition division with the focus on developing all positions and getting ready for the player pitch aspect. Segments of the game, such as base stealing, will be modified to enhance the learning experience at this stage of the child's development.
4) 10 & Under Division - Because of the growth in participation, the 10 & Under will continue to have its own division.

BRING YOUR OWN TEAM INTO THE 4U, 5U, 6U and 7U DIVISION
USSSA allows teams to form themselves in the 4U, 5U, 6U and 7U Divisions. You can either bring a whole team or a partial team and we will give you enough players to make the remainder of your team. We encourage teams to form with neighborhood kids or classrooms. When registering, please register kids together. AS LONG AS A PLAYER TURNS 4 YEARS OLD DURING THE CURRENT CALENDAR YEAR, THEY ARE ELIGIBLE.

2009 All-Star Post Season Championships
Anyone wanting to Manage an All-Star team needs to contact your league director. Lake Area USSSA Baseball will compete in the All-Star Post Season State and World Series Championships in 2009. In keeping with our commitment of "more kids playing more baseball", Lake Area USSSA Baseball will organize teams from kids in the Lake Area League. These teams will be formed from players that want to play in the Championships. Any player wanting to participate will be placed on a team. We may form more than one team if we get enough kids wanting to play. We will have teams in the 6u, 7u, 8u, 9u, 10u, 11u, 12u, 13u, 14u Divisions. Depending on Manager availability and commitment.
