Welcome Parents,
The American Legion Junior Baseball Committee welcomes you and your children to its 63rd summer of baseball. We believe the program is excellent, but our goal is to make each season better than the previous one. As we have done before, we will ask the parents or the guardians of each participant to sign a letter indicting that they understand and agree with our rules, will abide with those rules and will encourage all others attending games to do the same.
The American Legion Junior Baseball at the Civic Center is being run by The American Legion Post 35 of Traverse City, MI, All Changes made over the past two years are invalid.
Of a particular note is Rule 8, which says that the coach is not only responsible for his own conduct, but for that of his assistants, players and fans, If conduct becomes unreasonable, and the coach cannot control the conduct of any of the above participants, we are instructing our umpires to forfeit ballgames.
Our philosophy is that our program is for the players. If anyone’s conduct detracts from the player’s ability to enjoy and profit from the experience of playing, then we do not wish the game to continue. It is every parent’s and fan’s right to cheer for and support any player, players, or team. It is not his or her right to dictate any outcome of a play or game by intimidating another player, team or umpire.
Our rule states that an umpire should give coach two warnings about any such conduct. The coach will have signed a contract agreeing to end any such problem upon the umpire’s request. If any such incident occurs for a third time during any ballgame, the umpire will immediately forfeit that game. It is our committee’s hope that this letter will help solve a problem about which we are greatly concerned.
Sincerely,
Neal Horning,
Director
