Fayette

County does offer a choice of baseball programs

After reading an

article in this week's Citizen regarding youth baseball,

I feel an obligation to point out to the citizens of

Fayette County that there are choices in youth baseball

programs locally.

There are

two main programs in the county: Little League and AABC.

Peachtree City Little League, American and National,

covers the western section of the county, including

Fayetteville. Any child, boy or girl, in Fayette County

may play in one of these Little League programs. The

east-west dividing line for the two programs is White

Water Creek.

To my

knowledge, the AABC program also takes all players in

Fayette County, with fields in Fayetteville and Tyrone.

Each

program, Little League and AABC, has a set of

organizational rules it must follow. They each play

"baseball" but they do differ on some of their

philosophies, organization, and rules.

Youth

sports is definitely an area in which it is great to have

a choice: not every program is right for every

child/family. For more information, contact your local

Recreation Department for a contact name and number.
