2009 Season Introduction Letter
by posted 09/02/2008

It breaks your heart.  It is designed to break your heart.  The game begins in spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. 
 ~A. Bartlett Giamatti, "The Green Fields of the Mind," Yale Alumni Magazine, November 1977
        As the days grow shorter with the inevitable changing of the seasons and as we parents plan for the joyous day when our children return to school, the Nyack Valley Cottage Little League begins to plan for the 2009 season. While fall ball is just beginning and spring play won’t begin until March or April of 2009, the Board of the Little League must begin organizing the league and the teams for the upcoming season. There is always a great deal to do and the first step is always the General Meeting of the Little League for the selection of new board members which will take place at 7:30PM on Monday, September 15, 2008 at Liberty Elementary School.Each year, approximately half of the 16 board seats are up for renewal and the new board is selected at the General Meeting. Many of our outstanding, current board members plan to seek reelection, but as always, we hope that members of our community who have the time and an interest in working in the organization will put their names forward. While the commitment is time intensive, it can also be extremely rewarding. We invite anyone with an interest in serving the children of our community to attend the meeting and participate in forming the 2008-2009 board of directors. If you do have an interest, please contact Steve Kramer or Paul Lazarus for information on the type of positions that are available and the level of commitment that will be expected.
 Once the new board has been selected, managers for the 2009 little league teams must be selected and approved. While many managers return each year and continue to coach and teach our players, there is always a need for new managers and coaches on every level of play. Many volunteers have already submitted their names as potential managers and coaches. If anyone has an interest in managing or coaching a team for the upcoming season, it is extremely important that you contact either the league President or Vice President or the current director of the division in which you have an interest in volunteering to ensure that you receive consideration for the position. Board members can be reached by email or telephone. The contact information can be found at our website at www.nvcll.org. In addition, people interested in managing or coaching can fill out the appropriate volunteer form during our registration days. Managers for our Major and Minors divisions will be selected prior September 27, 2009, with the remaining spots being filled through the fall, so please let us know if you have an interest.
            Registration for the 2009 season begins online on September 22nd, 2008 and in person registration on September 27th, with tryouts for our Majors and Minors divisions beginning the same day. Any player intending to play in the majors MUST try out to be eligible. Players who are interested in playing in the minors should plan on attending the minor’s tryouts, as well. General registration ends on different dates for our different levels and once closed, will not re-open. Some additional spots may be available at later dates but there is no guarantee we can accommodate late registrants. Please review the “Registration and Tryout” notice for dates, times, and locations.
            As everyone realizes, our little league is a not for profit, volunteer run organization. It requires an enormous amount of time and energy to make the league run smoothly so that our children can simply show up, learn to play the game, and have fun. It has been through the effort of those volunteers that the NVCLL has been able to provide grow and thrive in recent years. While the board of directors is happy to invest their time and energy to make this happen, we can use all the help we can get. Volunteers are always needed in every area, especially for fundraising, facilities management, concession, and umpiring. We will be forming committees this fall to build on the success of the 2008 season and would like to see everyone offer some of their time and energy to help make the 2009 season even more successful.
We look forward to seeing everyone on September 15th at the General meeting.
The Board of the Nyack Valley Cottage Little League
