Our team is made up of 13 boys, 3 coaches & me (the EO - executive officer, manager). We have players from the Central Coast, Coffs Harbour & Tamworth all traveling to play baseball. Last year we were granted a wildcard entry to the Australian Little League Championships in Lismore, where the winner gets to go to the Little League World Series in the USA. It was the first time that the Central Coast was represented at this tournament. This year we qualified to go again! The levy associated with this tournament is a hardship in itself, not to mention uniforms, food while away, etc. The team stays together with the coaches & EO. We are looking for any assistance available.
Value to the Community
Baseball is finding it hard to compete with other sports in regional areas. As the first Little League team from the Coast to compete in the Nationals, we are showing kids in the country that there is a pathway for them to aspire to. That it is possible to get noticed and go further with their baseball aspirations.
Why the funds are needed
This money would be allocated to new uniforms for the team when they represent in Lismore at the 2016 Australian Little League Championships.
