The Breckenridge Little League Opening Ceremonies will be on Saturday. April 6 2019.
We will begin on Field 1 at 3:00pm. ALL participants in all divisions
are encouraged to attend as this is one of our biggest events of the
year.
The
Ceremony will include league-wide announcements, recognition of ALL
teams & Sponsors, recognition of EVERY player in the league, and a
league-wide photo. Most players, when announced, will receive their
team cap at the event.
Immediately
after the league photo, players in TeeBall, Coach Pitch, Minors &
Majors will have the opportunity to compete in the 3rd Annual BLL Skills Competitions! The three competitions are:
Hit for Distance (players
will hit from a tee and the distance is measured - qualifying distances
will receive a prize - there will be a winner in each division for the
longest distance - winners announced at Closing Ceremonies in June).
Throw for Accuracy (players will receive a ground ball and throw into a target from 3 distances - qualifying accuracy will receive a prize)
Run the Bases
(players will start at Home and run all the way around the bases for
speed as their time is recorded - qualifying times will receive a prize -
there will be a winner in each division for the fastest time - winners
announced at Closing Ceremonies in June).
Then at 5:30pm we will kick off the season with our First 2 Ballgames! The Majors Division will have a Double-Feature starting with the Tigers squaring off against the Cardinals for game 1 at 5:30pm. Then, at 7:30pm, the Dodgers will face the Yankees.
The Concession Stand will open when the Skills Competition begins and will stay open through the Majors games. It will have drinks, snacks, and snocones.
Also, during the Skills Events, the Big Country Braves 12U Travel Team will have an Ice Cream Station - all proceeds to benefit their tournament fees, equipment, and their trip to a tournament in New Mexico.
Come on out, bring a chair, and have a great time! We will see you there!!
