We are supporter funded! Our Players, Parents, and Staff appreciate your support.
The league administration costs are on going, and what we have to connect to the public, create our marketing, buy the banners, equipment, and uniforms for our players to have at games. We want to always be able to keep the doors open so that adults around our county and nearby can come and play without impeding the process due to no funds. We know that you can see our efforts on our site, through our updates, and at the games if you come to see us and cheer these adults on as they play.
The donations are charitable and can be submitted through your company for the IRS. We look forward to being around as long as our supports will have us. Please become a part of our organization so we can post and support your business through the use of your log and site info on our site.
The word of mouth is a strong business building tool and we will show all of our supporters with loud appreciation to all.
Please let us know if you need a tax exempt copy sent to you by email for your charity exemptions for the IRS. We will be glad to send you a copy upon your request.
