Field Closures and Rainout Policy

When it rains (or other severe weather occurs), the fields are assessed around noon and the Hotline is updated by 3pm typically. If you have any doubts about TWP fields being closed due to weather conditions, please call the Twp. Hotline at: 248 393 7040.

NOTE: Once we begin games (not practices), there may be times when the Twp. fields are CLOSED, but school fields are OPEN. Thus, some games will be cancelled (e.g. those played at Friendship Park) and some will not be cancelled (e.g. those played at Orion Oaks).

Your coach should notify you of cancellations. Otherwise, you should show up ready to ... play ball!

Coaches Corner

Coaches - Be sure to check Coaches Corner tab for the latest updates on tips, practice plans and clinics. We'll be updating this frequently. We've also added a new tab, "Ask Andy," wherein varsity head coach Andy Schramek answers your questions and provides insight into common problems you may be seeing and offers tips on how to correct them. Send us your questions.

Picture Day - Sunday, May 1st

All coaches will be able to pick-up uniforms this Friday and will be distributed prior to Sunday. We will also have our annual "pants swap" on sight at Picture Day if we need to exchange some sizes. Please bring clean pants to swap :-) ...The Picture Day location is the same as last year, at Civic Center Park near where Johnson Field was previously located.

Spirit Wear is now up and running!

This year we are also offering a LOYBL Window Decal with our new logo as shown above. Show your support by placing one of these on your car's rear window! Orders must be submitted by midnight on May 8th!

SAFETY ISSUE!

For those divisions that are playing at Orion Oaks fields, please keep vehicles on the parking surfaces away from the playing fields. We have many young kids that play in the area and a huge number of vehicles that have been parking on the grass, this creates a very dangerous situation.... I appreciate you cooperation.

BW3 Fundraiser!!!

Our Annual BW3 Fundraiser is this Sunday.... This is always a fun event and 20% of your purchases will go towards LOYBL! JUST BRING PRINTED COPY OF THIS FLIER WITH YOU TO BW3 and show support for your baseball family....hope to see many of you there!
