2008 Registration

Information

Registration dates for the 2008 season have been set. See the table below for times and dates. Registration is for boys and girls ages 5-18. Age for baseball (includes T-Ball) is determined by the child's age on April 30, 2008. Age for softball is determined by the child's age on December 31, 2007. Age is not determined by gender, but by the program the child will play in.

What does it cost

Registration for 1 child costs $75. This includes the cost of 35 raffle tickets that you can sell for $1 each to earn back a portion of your registration costs. If you choose to sell the tickets, keep the money and return the ticket stubs to the Concession Stand in order for them to be entered in the drawing. If you don't sell the tickets, fill them out with your name and turn in the ticket stubs to the Concession Stand. Additional raffle tickets can be purchased at a reduced cost and resold to earn even more money for your child. Registering early can save you money too. By registering your child during the first weekend, you will save $10 off the cost per child. We also offer large family discounts, so ask us how to help your entire family have fun playing.

What does your child receive

Your child will receive a t-shirt and hat to keep and the use of park bats, helmets and other equipment that are provided for the coaches by ESLL. Each level of play is a little different, but your child will play in 12-20 games in a clean and safe environment at ESLL. Your child will make new friends and see old friends at ESLL.
