whatever you guys are doing it's working.another thing helps is you guys have good coaches. it is my understanding that you guys get people who know what there doing and not hired because of who they are and can be manipulated by parents and school officials. sorry for going on. i applaude effort like Russell puts in all thier sports and education.

where is your area 11yr olds going to be at?

LL coaches are not hired.... they are appointed by the president and board of directors of the league (managers and coaches committee) AND are totally 1000% volunteers!! A good coach has to stand his ground regardless of the level they are coaching though.... Kudo's to Russell for evidently doing a wonderful job of appointing their coaches and managers and to the kids for making what sounds like another wonderful season in the land of Russell Little League!!! :letsparty
