May 2024

Dear Little League Families,
We are excited to have your child join us for the 2024 Spring Season! We hope the kids
learn some technical skills and love baseball. Little league is about more than simply
baseball, though. It is a sport that teaches your child about teamwork, discipline,
sportsmanship and a love of fitness. These lofty goals can only be accomplished through
our teamwork. Parents: please encourage your child, help out where you can, and treat
everyone with respect. Bottom line: this is a game. We want the kids to have fun this
season!
A lot of work and organization goes into putting on a season of Little League, but despite
our best efforts to disseminate information, we may overlook something. Please feel free to
contact us if you have any questions. Your best source of information is through
Facebook—like us at Kenai Little League.
Some important dates and notes for this season:
April 23, 24, and 26th: 5:30-7pm at Kenai Middle School- Baseball evaluations for players 9
and above. We will have coaches evaluating the players in preparation for the draft on April
27th
. Please plan to have your player at these evaluations. If you would like to coach in one
of these divisions, you are welcome to attend and offer your input.
Uniform Distribution: Uniforms will be distributed in early May. Your coach will receive a
time slot for your team. There will be makeup slots available if you are unable to attend
your scheduled time. We will also put these dates out on Facebook.
May 18- Opening Day: Opening ceremonies will begin at 10 am. There will be a potluck
following the ceremonies and games will be played that day. Hamburgers and hot dogs will
be provided. Please bring the following items based on your player’s division:
T-ball: drinks
Coach Pitch/Machine Pitch: paper plates or plastic cups
Minors: chips
Majors: side dish
Intermediate/senior: dessert

June 22: Closing ceremonies and Home-run Derby. We’ll send out more information on
these events as we get closer to the end of the season. Please stay tuned to Facebook and
emails for additional information.

All-Stars: All-Star team selections will take place towards the end of May for teams in our
upper divisions (minors and above). All-star tournaments are held in July in various
locations on the peninsula and in Anchorage, depending on the division. We will be
fundraising for all-stars through the season. More information will be sent to players who
are selected for these teams.
We are always in need of additional volunteers to assist, organize teams, help in the snack
shack, umpire and help maintain the fields. If you are available to help, please send an
email to us, including your name and how you would like to help. We will send an email
with a background check link. If you have any further questions, please reach out to us via
email: [email protected]
Thank you for your support of Kenai Little League! We’re looking forward to a great 2024
season!
Sincerely,
Your Kenai Little League Board of Directors
