Somers Little League | Somers Connecticut USA

Our Mission:

Somers Little League is committed to our community and the development of our youth. We are about baseball as much as anything - not the game we adults watch being played but the game the kids feel. The pressure of the at bat, the butterflies before throwing the first pitch and the nerves when he realizes the fly ball is coming right at him. The tradition of this game brings opportunity to our towns youth that is second to none. As coaches and board members we are committed to teaching our little league ball players about character, courage and loyalty. We are committed to teaching them how to be a good teammate, how to lose with dignity, win with honor and that nothing worth doing comes easy.

Somers Little League is seeking Umpires

Somers Little League (SLL) is developing an in-town Umpire Program. We are inviting high school baseball and softball players, and any other individuals 12 years and older, to help develop this program. This will be a fun and rewarding experience to expand your knowledge of the game and officiate in-town little league games.

We know that most high school baseball and softball athletes began their careers at the local town level and may feel a connection to serving the town little league. This will not only be benefit SLL, but will also enrich the knowledge and love of the game for the high school athletes.

SLL is offering options for paid games, as well as signing off on volunteer hours if a student athlete so chooses. Training tools will be provided through the Little League Internationals Umpire Registry. Please use the following link for information on the registration process and tools: https://www.littleleague.org/university/umpires/. Once you have completed the registration, the league will provide training information, background check, equipment and tools needed for this position. Umpire opportunities are available for the spring season and will run through the summer and fall baseball programs.

Interested candidates can contact Matt Killenbeck Umpire Coordinator at mattkillenbeck@gmail.com
