LEAGUE MISSION

Our goal with Wallen Fall season is to provide a productive venue for improving skills, game experience, and a high level of competition for players.  Practices and games are intended for the players to gain on the field experience, manage pressure, teamwork, failure, and success while learning more about competing at a higher level on the field.

The leagues are not about winning at all costs, but it is about letting the players earn their success on the field.  We will attempt to provide an environment to help players learn from failures and teach them to work to turn failures into success.  Our goal at Wallen Complex is to have players develop as athletes, teammates, students, and productive young adults through learning more about managing the natural adversity presented in games.

Players must treat umpires and coaches with respect and maturity, and the same is expected of coaches to players and umpires.  Coaches must set a good example for their players, treating umpires, players and other coaches with respect.  There is no tolerance for coaches and players exhibiting behavior that is not a good example for their peers and young adults.  Our philosophy is that if young players are held to highs standards and treated with respect and responsibility, they will reciprocate that to their coaches and umpires.
