Next League Meeting:
Sunday, February 26th @ 7pm at Long Wongs
All teams should have at least one deposit made to hold their spot as we now move to scheduling. $1000 total now due less current deposits.
It looks like Club Paragon will be the sponsor for the Expansion team which will be filled with several free agents, Marquette High & Riverside alum.
Our first meeting of 2006 at Long Wongs went well. The league will be adding official score keepers this year so that MBL records can be viewed alongside existing County Minor and Open records. Also, the league finances were announced and the league is currently carrying a $1500 surplus and expects to add a small amount this season after all expenses. In addition to several rules updates, the league decided to add an expansion team in addition to the new teams entering the league.
Expansion!
The 2006 Milwaukee Baseball League season will kick off with four new teams! Added for this coming season are teams from South Milwaukee, Wauwatosa, Milwaukee and a league organized expansion club. Our new managers are Steve Sosella from the South Milwaukee club, Jeff Brostowitz from the Wauwatosa club and Dave Barth of the Milwaukee club.
The expansion club is seeking a core of players and a manager. If you are interested in managing please contact Kirk Spano via email. The league is helping to find sponsorship and getting the team started. There are already a small group of solid players available and we will be looking to fill out the roster this spring.
Please welcome our new sponsors with a visit: the South Milwaukee Arcade (1200 Madison Ave in South Milwaukee) which features bowling and a bar and Sluggo's Sport's Pub and Grill (127th & Burleigh). The Milwaukee franchise has several sponsor candidates and will announce soon.
New (and existing) sponsors please provide a graphic similar to what's in the left column of BaseballMilwaukee.com and a URL to your website, homepage or foodspot.com page. If you don't have a site or page, please contact Shannon at Second Platform from the link on the bottom of our webpage. It is very reasonable to set up a homepage or an entire website. All sponsors will also have an ad on our Schedule Poster which we anticipate printing and distributing about 500 to local businesses- you will be receiving a short information form soon for this purpose.
