We're
hoping this site becomes your #1 source for all things |
|
Babe Ruth, but for the site to be successful, we'll need a lot of
cooperation and volunteer participation.
In
order to keep the site current and useful, we need game
summaries, plus any other team news of interest to players,
parents and fans. It's too hard to manage random submissions,
so each team needs to designate a website
coordinator (Publicity
Person) to
channel their information through.
If
you'd like to volunteer for that position with your team, first
confirm with your team's manager and then contact Jim @ webmaster@alamedababeruth.com.

Thanks !
REMINDER:
Time Limit AL Games
There
are time limits in the American League - no new inning after 2
hours and a half unless (1) the losing team has not yet batted 5
times so it's not a regulation game yet or (2) the game is
tied.

Submitting
Scores & Game Summaries:
Submitting
scores and submitting game summaries are two separate responsibilities.
SCORES
Scores are required and must be submitted to the webmaster after every game by
the winning coach.
GAME SUMMARIES
Game summaries are optional - but strongly encouraged - and
are generally submitted by a
volunteer parent.
PARENTS:
You're at the games anyway, why not volunteer to be your team's
Publicity Person and send in "brief" summaries of your
games. If no one from your team sends in game recaps... you
won't see any stories for your team. ...More

MEDIA
COORDINATOR NEEDED…
 We
encourage ALL parents to volunteer and get involved in our Babe
Ruth program. One volunteer assignment that is fun and fairly easy
is the League Media Coordinator. All you have to do is receive
game summaries from teams via email, and then forward them to the
local newspapers each week.

 Rain
/ Field Conditions
After
a rain, always call the ARPD Field Hotline to find out whether fields
are playable or closed:
747-
7540
NEVER
go onto fields that have been closed by ARPD. Thanks.
We
still have
several openings
on our Board and really need some parents (especially those of
younger players) to step up and join the fun. It's a great way
to get involved in the community, to have a say in how our league
is run, and help our kids enjoy the great
sport of baseball.
