TomSox Youth League Celebration - Monday, June 4th - FREE!

The Charlottesville TomSox have invited area leagues to join them for a celebration of youth sports on June 4th, the home opener for the VBL defending champs!  

 

All players attending the game in uniform and their families will receive free admission.  The tent area on top of the hill will be yours to enjoy and players from each league will have the chance to participate with in-game promotions, such as mascot race and throwing out the first pitch.  Although catering will not be provided, there will be tables and seating available.  See the flyer for more information. 

Fundraiser Kick-Off - Support Northside!!

Northside Player and Families,

This year's fundraiser is simple--Just ask people you know to support the league that you play in.  Each year Northside raises funds to cover expenses that registration fees simply cannot cover:  field maintenance items, official baseballs, bats, catching equipment, chalk to line the fields, and the machines to make those lines so nice, and too many more items to list   You can help offset these costs by simply asking people you know for  a donation.

The fundraiser will run from Saturday, May 12^th through Tuesday, May 29^th.  

Raise money to  and receive the following prizes:

Raise $25                      Northside Logo Water bottle
Raise $50                      Unique Northside Logo Pin (or water bottle)
Raise $100                    Northside T-Shirt (or water bottle & pin)
Raise  $250                   Northside Logo Hat (or t-shirt and pin)
Raise $500 or over      Northside Logo Hoodie

The team the raises the most money will win a Pizza Party during the Day of Champions!!!  We are working on other individual incentives so stay tuned…. 

A packet will be sent home with each player this Saturday with more details.

If the 200+ Northside Families each raise $50 that would mean $10,000 would be available to improve our program and keep it strong. We have set a fundraising goal of $50 per player.  

Did you know that Northside….

• … spent $4000 this year on a new LED Scoreboard for Carson Raymond Field?
• … spent $2500 this year on a new professional portable pitching mound?
• … spent $1000 this year on a compliant USA bat for every Cal Ripken team?
• … spent over $2000 this year on player equipment including batting helmets and catching gear?
• … spends over $1000 each year on chalk liner and StayDry?
• … would like to install a new batting cage at Sutherland field at a cost of over $10,000?
• … has many additional expenses each year that we rely on our Fundraiser to cover?

Thank You,

Northside Board of Directors

Saturday, April 14th is Picture Day!

Dear Northside Parents,

Who’s on first? The crew from F-Stop, ready to knock your pictures out of the park. We will be taking photos Saturday April 14^th and there are a couple of changes to our game plan.

This year all orders will be shipped directly to you. We are waiving the shipping on all orders received on photo day. There is a link below to our order form and a page of sample products. Print out the form, fill it out and bring it and a check with you Saturday the 14^th. Our photographers will have forms with them as well.

Another change is that we will be posting the pictures to our online ordering site after the pre-orders have shipped. Further details will be included in a future email along with a link to the photos. Again, these orders will be shipped directly to you but there will be shipping added to the order.

F-Stop looks forward to another season of Northside baseball.  We have worked with the league almost every year since the league was founded and many parents remember us photographing them when they played in the league. We are pleased to be working with a new generation of Northside players and parents. Thank you for supporting a local business. Now PLAY BALL!

Order forms can be found here.
Sample products can be found here.

Player and team photos will be taken during all games on Saturday, April 14^th.  Please be prepared to show up early to help ensure that games are on time throughout the day.  Your coach will be in touch with more details on timing.

Committee Members Needed

Do you like the improvements that the Board has approved and financed over the years?  How about lights on Carson Raymond Field, new portable mound, bats for all Cal Ripken Teams, new pitching machines and more?  We are able to provide these improvements through our fundraising activities and are in need of committee members to move these efforts forward.  In addition, we need volunteers to help with our amazing Day of Champions event that occurs on the last Sunday of the season.  In the past, we’ve had silent auctions, a bouncy house, coach dunk tank, mechanical bull, championship games, and more.  If you are willing to help with Fundraising and/or Day of Champions, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Mary Dietrich, today.  Please help Northside continue to be a fun and exciting place to play baseball.
