MEMO TO: Mounds View Parks and Recreation Commission <br /> • FROM: Staff <br /> DATE : March 22 , 1983 <br /> RE: Modified youth baseball proposal <br /> As you are aware, staff has met with the Mounds View Athletic <br /> Association during the past month regarding the feasibility <br /> of revising the nine year old youth baseball program. That <br /> proposal was not accepted by the Mounds View Athletic Assoc . <br /> and it appears that they will be offering the same program <br /> for nine year olds during 1983 summer season. During the <br /> past two weeks we have received a number of parents ' phone <br /> calls requesting our department offer some type of modified <br /> baseball program for nine and ten year olds . <br /> The requests that are coming in from parents indicate the <br /> same type of position staff had that being a more gradual <br /> transition period needs to be established between eight ball <br /> and youth little league . The City of New Brighton has indicated <br /> they would be willing to offer a modified youth baseball program <br /> from nine and ten year olds in conjunction with our department <br /> for the 1983 season. At this time, specific rules and regula- <br /> tions have not been developed but staff envisions we would work <br /> those problems out through parental involvement . <br /> • Thoughts that have been shared with us at this time include <br /> having the youths pitch to their own team, possibly a different <br /> pitcher each inning , possibly a continuation of the eight-ball <br /> program and/or a combination of the two. <br /> Staff ' s request at this time is to have some type of support or <br /> direction from the Park Commission authorizing staff to pursue the <br /> development of a modified youth baseball program in conjunction with <br /> the City of New Brighton and local parents . The only drawback that <br /> staff envisions with this program would be the same as with the <br /> youth pitching machine league that being a potential conflict with the <br /> athletic association . I have not been able to contact Curt <br /> Mathison, President of M .V.A.A. to let him know we are pursuing <br /> this type of program but I don' t personally envision any problems <br /> judging from our earlier meetings . Staff would be willing to <br /> enter into a discussion regarding the wisdom of such a program <br /> on Thursday evening . <br /> BKA/s11 <br />
