League
· We are part of District 33 in PA Little League.
· We play teams within our district which consist of Montrose, Blue Ridge and Susquehanna, Elk Lake, Tunkhannock and Endless Mountain.
SPECIAL EVENTS
Field Cleanup
· This is usually done the first or second week of April.
· It is an opportunity for us to come together to make the fields our children play on look the best in our league.
· The support of the parents is critical for this as everyone can help in one way or another.
Night out at the Rumble Ponies
The Choconut Little League is welcomed to spend a night with the local double A team the “Rumble Ponies”. The Kids are able to be honored on the field.
Team Sponsors
These sponsors pay for uniforms the children wear and their support year after year is key to our success. Without them we would not be able to provide each child with a hat and shirt as a uniform.
Banner Sponsors
Local Business can also choose to purchase banners that are placed at the fields and proceeds go to field improvements and equipment.
Coaches
· The coaches of the teams are all volunteers.
· They take this time out of their busy lives to teach our children the skills of the sport and important life lessons such as teamwork and supporting each other.
· These individuals spend many hours with the children and also need the support of the rest of the parents to make this the best experience for the children.
Team Moms
The team moms make sure there is concession stand workers for each home game. They are also the focal point for the team in assisting the coach.
Fields
· We play games on 3 fields at the Choconut School and a Tee Ball and Instructional field (Legg’s Field).
· These fields are maintained by the coaches and other volunteers before and after games
The materials needed to maintain the fields (such as dirt, field line, salt, rakes, shovels, mowers, etc) are all funded by CVYAA.
