We will shorten the base paths at Banneker Lower Field and paint little league diamond lines in right field (Field #2), center field (Field #4) and left field (Field #3), so three (3) Tee-Ball games will be going on simultaneously in the outfield, while a fourth game will be played on the main diamond (Field #1).

It will be Coach-Pitch AA games, with side soft toss.

Team photos, player introductions, league address, national anthem, concessions, and first pitch will take place at Banneker Upper Field.

Concessions will consist of grilled burgers and frankfurters, popcorn, chips, and juice, beginning at 12:00pm and closing at 3:00pm.

Maintenance park clean-up will begin after concessions at 3:00pm, with comprehensive park clean-up commencing at the conclusion of the last game at 5:00pm. All lost and found items will be stored in the containers at Banneker Upper Field until the following Saturday, March 29th and then non-claimed items will be donated.
