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.
