FILL and FIAA Update

Just to keep everyone updated, after we met with FIAA and got into the details of how the 2 leagues would come together, the FILL Officers have decided to not dissolve FILL, but rather extend an offer to affiliate with FIAA. Basically, aligning where it makes sense.

We believe that baseball is unique and autonomous enough to warrant a seperate entity. You can find examples where Athletic Associations have combined programs, but there are just as many if not more programs that manage baseball as a separate program. I believe most Little Leagues in Jacksonville are solely baseball and softball and not part of a combined program association.

The affiliation agreement we have offered FIAA allows us to work together with events and projects where we have a shared interest.

I will keep you all informed on how FIAA responds to our offer.

A few spots remain in all leagues

If you want to register we have a few spots left.

Registration will close very soon.

Another Registration Record

We are over 260 and counting!!

FILL Final Rosters Completed

We are looking forward to a great season.

If you have not received any emails from FILL either we have your wrong email address or your email provider is blocking my emails . Bell South.net addresses are giving me a hard time.

Your coaches and managers will be calling you tomorrow and Friday.
