The 2010 Season

THANKS!!

Thanks again to all the parents, fans and especially the girls for making the 2010 Season so much fun.  Final “Season” Standings have been updated, as well as the results from the Beat the Heat Tournament.  Click both links to view them.

Closing Ceremonies and the Coaches Game were a lot of fun this past weekend; check back for Picture Gallery updates including Tournament, Coaches Game and Closing Ceremony pictures.

MGSL Survey Form -Version should be compatible with all versions of Word.

We think the season went well, but we want to continue to make the experience even better for everyone involved.  Because of this we have created this MGSL Survey Form, we would like your input/feedback/suggestions so that we can continue to grow and evolve as a league.  You can complete only what you are interested in, or you can spend the time and finish the entire form.  Your feedback will be reviewed at the next Board Meeting July 6th, 6PM at Straw Hat Pizza, which you are invited to.  So if you could take a moment to share with us the good and/or bad we would appreciate it.  Please download, complete, save and email back to modestogirlssoftball@yahoo.com.

Finally the 2011 Registration Forms and information about next season, including the NEW 6U T Ball Division, will be posted in the coming month.  Keep checking back for details.  Thanks again so much for this past season, and we hope to see you again next year.

The Board

I’ve received 3 emails this week from parents asking about next year so I thought I would mention this since 2 of the questions had to do with ages and when the girls can start.  At the board meeting last night we discussed creating a new “Tee Only” Division for 5 & 6 year-olds, which would split the 6′s from the 8U Division next season.  There are cost factors to consider like new equipment (smaller bats, Tee’s, XXS helmets, etc.), but we are excited about this idea in terms of how it might help prepare the girls for the next “coach pitch” level, and of course giving the younger girls an alternative to coed baseball little leagues.

Any comments and/or suggestions are welcome, and stay tuned for details.

Poker Night

Saturday’s fundraiser turned out better than expected; we managed to raise over $3500 and we could not have done it without the sponsors, the board and the participants.  Congratulations go out to the winners of both the raffle prizes and the tournament; and special thanks to all the sponsors for there generous donations (links below).

Don’t forget about the two in-store registration days beginning this Saturday at Play It Again Sports, 2720 McHenry Avenue in Modesto, from 10am to 2pm.

Also we just scheduled the MGSL Modesto NUTS night Thursday April 22nd versus the Stockton Ports.  All players will participate in the Parade around the Bases and the girl who sells the most tickets will get to throw out the first pitch of the game.  We look forward to a fun evening with everyone’s families so make sure you keep that night open.
