ATTENTION UAW SOFTBALL COACHES – There will be a Coaches Meeting for the 2015 Softball Season on Sunday April 26, 2015 at 4:00 pm at the LAP Union Hall Gym. The purpose of the meeting is to see how many teams are interested this year in a UAW Softball League. Bring your tentative rosters. You must have a preliminary roster with you at the meeting. All players must be UAW Local 862 members in good standing. Official rosters must be set prior to 2nd game. No exceptions! You may want to combine teams at this meeting. There is a $100 forfeit fee, cash due two weeks prior to the start of the season (approximately the weekend after Memorial Day). Each forfeit costs your team $50. After the second forfeit your team is out of the league. If your team has no forfeits then the money will be refunded at the end of the season. The coach or a representative must be present at the meeting. If you cannot make the meeting then you need to contact Amanda Goins at aegoins862@gmail.com prior to the meeting with the above information.
