2010 Fall Ball Signups Have Begun !!

The Menlo Atherton Little League (MA-LL) Fall Ball program is a developmental league that provides youth from 8-11 years old an opportunity to play baseball in an organized fashion during the fall season. In Fall 2010, MA-LL will operate two Fall Ball leagues: one at the Major’s level and one at the AAA level.

The Majors League is for players of 2010 Little League age 10 or 11 who are playing at the Majors level or who are likely to play at the Majors level next year (2011 season). Note that playing Fall Ball at the Majors level does not guarantee that a player will be drafted into Majors in the following year.

The AAA League is for players of 2010 Little League age 8, 9, or 10 who played at the AAA or AA level this year and who are likely to play at the AAA level next year.

Registration is $100 per player, and runs from mid-July to August 31. For more information, download the 2010 Fall Ball Info Sheet, or go directly to our online registration site: Register Now!

Congratulations Mikes Cafe !!

Mikes Cafe jumped out to an early lead on Jack Gray's leadoff home run and rode the strong pitching of Jackson Salabert to beat Draegers 8-3 and win the Majors Championship at Burgess Park last Saturday morning. This was the second straight Majors Championship for Mikes Cafe. 

Mike's Cafe used a similar formula to then beat the Alpine Majors Champs in the City Championship game Friday evening at Burgess Park with a dramatic come from behind, 2-1 victory. Trailing 1-0 in the bottom of the 4th, Jack Gray homered to deep left center to even the score (only the 2nd base runner for Mikes so far). In the bottom of the 5th, Jackson Salabert (who pitched a complete game gem for Mikes) helped his own cause, singling in Cole Hagerman for the go ahead run. In the afternoon game - the AAA Champion Volcanoes also defeated the Alpine AAA champs!

Challenger Division Winds Up 2nd Successful Year!!

The Menlo Atherton Red Sox (MA's Challenger Division team) played its final game of the season this Sunday in Cupertino. Check out the great Challenger Division video (made by the Lincoln Glen Challenger team when we played them back in May) on the Challenger "News/Standings" page.

The Challenger Division of Little League is a program for mentally and physically challenged youth, helping them to enjoy the full benefits of Little League participation in an athletic environment structured to their abilities. More than the skills of baseball learned through the experience, the value of the Little League Challenger Division is found in the proven therapeutic and socialization benefits of participating in sports, the strengthening of participants’ self-esteem, the opportunities to mainstream into other divisions of play, and the disciplines of teamwork, sportsmanship and fair play, which are hallmarks of the Little League program. The Little League Challenger Division provides the framework so Little League programs may offer a structured, athletic activity for all youth in their communities. Playing with the same equipment on the same fields, Challenger Division participants have the opportunity to experience the joys of pulling together as a team, being cheered, and earning awards for their achievements.
