Little League International Launches New Electronic Newsletter for Coaches and Managers
WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. (Feb. 3, 2006) – In January 2006, Little League
International published the first monthly electronic newsletter for
volunteers who have taken on the role and responsibility of Little
League coach.
“The Coach’s Box,” is available to all volunteers coaching baseball
and softball in the many divisions of Little League. Designed as a
free reference guide, each monthly newsletter is delivered by e-mail
to managers and coaches who can enjoy special guest columns, read up
on the latest in Little League coaching techniques and drills, and
stay current with the playing rules.
“Little League International wants this publication to be a teaching
tool for all Little League coaches and managers,” Joe Losch, senior
vice president for Little League International, said. “Anyone who
has been a Little League coach or manager knows how challenging it
can be to do the best job possible for their players and local
program. It is out hope that this newsletter will provide a
well-rounded resource for all of our coaches.”
Every month subscribers receive a publication that includes a
feature story written by a member of the Little League International
staff, articles on health and a safety practices, motivational
coaching techniques, separate skills and drills sections specific to
baseball and softball, a section on Little League rules authored by
Umpire Consultant Andy Konyar, access to the Little League’s coaches
registry, and a guest column written by former Major Leaguer and
current ESPN Baseball Tonight Analyst, Harold Reynolds.
Recipients of “The Coach’s Box” are able to forward the newsletter
to a friend, fellow coach or other Little League volunteer.
