Like all sports during this time, whether professional,
college, or high school, our season was pushed back slightly but we are now
ready to get back onto the field.
The divisions offered and the age groups within each are as
follows:
Coach Pitch - league ages 6 to 8
Minors - league ages 8 to 10
Majors - league ages 10 to 12
Juniors - league ages 13 to 15
REGISTRATION PROCESS
Due to the fact that there are a number of families that
have a credit from the Spring season that they are carrying over to the Fall
our registration process has been changed slightly. When you register you will be put on a wait
list and not be able to make your payment at that time. If you have a Spring credit it will be
manually applied to your account and your billing adjusted accordingly. For all who register, your player will be
moved from waitlist status to active status at which time the registration
system will send you an email notifying you that you can now go into your
account to complete your registration by making your payment. Please note that our website administer
Sports Connect charges a $3.00 transaction fee on all registrations so even if
you have a credit you will need to complete your registration by going into
your account and paying the transaction fee. We will have a limited number of
registrations available in each division so you should register as soon as
possible to ensure your player's participation.
VOLUNTEERS
We have an increased need for volunteer managers, coaches,
and team parents. In order for GNLL to
successfully have a season we will need people to volunteer to help. Without a
sufficient number of volunteers we will not be able have a season. We will need a minimum of a manager, 2
official assistant coaches and at least 1 additional coach or team parent for
each team. Little League is based on volunteerism and the only way to have a
successful program is for parents to help out.
SEASON
The goal is to start games on October 24th or 26th and go
until December 12th. We will take a break during Thanksgiving most likely the
Wednesday thru Sunday during the holiday period. Practices will be able to
start for teams as soon as we can get managers signed up and teams formed so the quicker we get
registrations the quicker teams can get started. We will be instituting some
Covid-19 regulations/protocols based on CDC and Little League International
recommendations along with state of Arizona, Maricopa county, and town of
Gilbert requirements. These protocols
will be posted soon on our website.
