JAA Ball Diamond Stewardship
Reminders
After a week or so of practices
several things have come to the
attention of the JAA Board that need
to be addressed. Coaches, players,
parents, and any other people who
use either the ball diamonds at the
Yorktown Sports Park or the old ball
diamonds at Walter L. Stephenson
Park need to help us with the
following items.
Motorized Vehicles
are not permitted to go past the
parking area into the ball
diamond area at either the
Yorktown Sports Park or Walter L
Stephenson Park without very
special permission from the JAA
Board.
Ball Diamond Use
- Every ball diamond and batting
cage at both the Yorktown Sports
Park and Walter L. Stephenson
Park is reserved just about
every night of the week. It is
NEVER acceptable to try to
pirate another team's practice
time and give them a hard time
just because you got there
before they did. If you need to
reserve some practice time
please contact either Scott Murr
(scott.murr@yorktownjaa.org)
or Jim Kemp (jim.kemp@yorktownjaa.org).
Scott or Jim will inform you of
open field time and get you on
the schedule if an acceptable
time can be found.
Coaches who want to switch their
practice times with other teams
need to contact the other team's
coaches to work out trades. Jim
and Scott are not going to work
those trades for you and they do
not need to be informed when
those trades take place. Please
make sure all members of your
team are informed however.
Soft Toss and Fence
Climbing - Soft toss
batting practice into the fences
with anything other than wiffle
balls is never allowed at either
the Yorktown Sports Park or
Walter L. Stephenson Park.
People caught doing soft toss
into the fences will be held
monetarily responsible for replacing
every section of fence they
damage. The same goes for
climbing and hurdling fences. It
is never allowed.
Red Dirt Around
Dugouts - Parents, the
red dirt around the dugouts at
the Yorktown Sports Park
is not your child's new sandbox
and they should not be playing
in it. Parents of offending
children will be asked to clean
up the mess they make.
Pets are
never allowed at the JAA ball
diamonds. You will be asked to
leave if you bring your pet to
the ball diamond.
Smoking and tobacco
use is never allowed at
the JAA ball diamonds.
