Getting Started - Hot Topics



Let me address a few hot topics:

Uniforms - We will provide a hat and shirt for all kids. We will provide up to 3 coaches shirts. The kids will need to buy their own pants. The pants color will be up to the team manager. TBall and Machine Pitch will receive Fleming Island Little League shirts of various colors with numbers on the back. If you wish to have names you can arrange that with LogoXPress. You can walk your order into LogoXPress or we can do it for you. LogoXpress has our designed logo. For Minors and Majors you will get a shirt and hat with any Major League Logo. They will arrive with sequential numbering without names. Names will be up to you. Teams with Sponsors you will need to bring your shirts to LogoXPress to have the logo placed on the sleeve before the first game.


Game Schedule - (Available 9/19)We are working on the game schedules. Plan on playing Saturday morning and or early afternoon from 9/30 to 11/18. Most weeks will have 1 week day game too. We usually have them on Monday Tuesday or Thursday. Minors and Majors will be doing interleague play with Mill Creek. They will travel to our parks and we will travel to theirs twice. They play at some excellent fields in the Palencia Community.

If you have questions and concerns at this point your manager is the best person to contact.
