January 24, 2006. The Al & Al Clinic was a big success! For materials that Al discussed at the clinic, including the plan for the mini-L-screen, see the handout below. anuary 5, 2006. Happy New Year! As we do every year, the NMBOLL has adopted Local Rules that go beyond what is required by Little League. You can (and should!) review them; you can find them in the Handout Section. December 16, 2005. Well, now our teams have names! Hopefully, by now your managers have called you to tell you you're on their team.

Decmeber 16, 2005. Homer Simpson and I will let you know in this space what's new on the web site. Today, we have added our 2006 teams to the site. Unfortunately, they don't yet have real team names--just the names of the managers. Based on the requests from the managers, we will be naming the teams soon. We will also be adding the rosters to the web site in the near future, so check back often!

The long-awaited Juniors (Little LEague ages 13 and 14) tryouts will take place this coming Saturday from 2:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the North Miami Beach Senior High School Baseball field. All registered 13 and 14 year olds should be there with baseball shoes, their bats (league bats will also be available), and their gloves.

Those of you who did not come to tryouts on November 19 or 20 will have another, final chance: on Sunday, December 4 at Allen Field between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. Remember, these tryouts are for kids who will be 7 through 12 on April 30, 2006. (Kids who will be 6 on April 30 AND who have already played a year of Rookie ball can also come, IF they want to play Minors Jr. (coach/machine pitch) this year.) Also remember, that if you do not attend a tryout, you run the risk of not being placed on a team. Any questions, please contact our Player Agent Loretta Mufson.

As a result of Hurricane Wilma, NMBOLL Baseball Player Evaluations have been rescheduled to Saturday and Sunday, November 19-20. They have also been relocated to Allen Field, which is at NE 17th Ave. and 162 Street. (Softball and Junior division (i.e., for players who will be 13 or 14 on April 30, 2006) evaluations will be announced at a later time). Of course, the first thing you have to do is register--we are NOT accepting registrations at the evaluations.

Once you've registered, bring your glove and good running shoes to the evaluations at the time listed below on either day
