We had our registration Saturday.  The boys will be going to age groups for the upcoming season for the boys.      
You can still register by printing off the application by clicking
here.  You can either send this to us by mail or contact me at ryan.elson@aol.com  to turn it in.  We will be taking registrations until the try-outs on Feb 18th.  So please don't delay! 

Reminder to all coaches:  Sunday the 29th will be a mandatory meeting at the Galveston Community Center at 6:00 to go over things from equipment to the fundraiser.  Feel free to bring your team moms and assistant coaches.

Try-outs will be held on February 18th. For the girls.  Any girl wanting to move from rookie to Minors or Minors to Majors must try-out.  For the boys we will have 1 try-out.  Because of the changes we are making with the age groups we will be doing things a little different this year.  Instead of having every boy try out again we are going to have any boy that is coming from Rookie to the 6-8 group, new boys to the league as well as any 10 year old that played on a Minor League team last year.

Tryout times:
9:00   Girls Majors
10:00 Girls Minors
11:00 Boys

Something to start getting used to:
Rookie league will now be called Teeball
Boys 6-8 will be called Rookie
Boys 9-10 will be Minors
Boys 11-12 will be Majors

Some changes for this year include the boys going to age divisions. We will be trying to go to 6-8, 9-10 and 11-12 age divisions for the boys.

Sponsors, 

        The board
, families, and kids of the Galveston Youth League want to express our sincere gratitude for your continued support of our program. Without sponsors like you, it would not be possible to make such a lasting impact on the amount of kids that we do every year. The league continues to be a landmark in our rural community for children to come in the spring and summer for little to no cost and enjoy the “Great American Past Time”. Our jerseys, equipment and facility costs are mainly covered by our team sponsors and annual fundraisers. The only cost required by the children is a one time fee of $25 to $40 based on the child’s age, far less than most other leagues. We feel this is very important that every child be able to take part in this, no matter their family’s financial position, especially in this time of economic recession. As mentioned, this can only be done with the continued support from businesses within our community that have the same visions to see our children grow socially, physically, and emotionally through this great sport.  Attached is a form that offers the different tiers of sponsorship. Please consider what you might be able  to do this year, and understand that every dollar is appreciated. If you have any questions, please contact us at kdixon@beckshybrids.com   or steve.rudd@carrier.utc.com
