Opening Day
You always get a special kick on Opening Day, no matter how many you go through. You look forward to it like a birthday party when you're a kid. You think something wonderful is going to happen.
JOE DIMAGGIO
Our annual Lafayette Little League Opening Day Jamboree is scheduled for March 5th and 6th, 2022. This event gives all of our teams the opportunity to play on Buckeye fields and enjoy special Jamboree festivities. We will have baseball, entertainment, and the snack shack open all day Saturday and Sunday.
Pictures will be taken on the same day at Burton Valley School. Each team will have a scheduled time for photos that allows them to attend and enjoy their full game at Buckeye Fields.
Parking is a challenge for this event. The Buckeye parking lot is reserved for the volunteers running the Jamboree, the team managers carrying equipment, the shuttle van drivers, picture day staff, the Challenger team, and those involved in running the event. Note that only team managers may park at Buckeye, not coaches. All others must park at the Lafayette Community Park lot or Lafayette Community Center Roller Rink about one mile up St. Mary's Road. A shuttle van will run continuously between Buckeye and Community Park from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. both days. It will pick up in the passenger loading zone just inside the Buckeye parking lot. You are welcome to enter the Buckeye lot to drop off or pick up passengers, but then must proceed around and out of the lot.
There are very few legal parking spots along St. Mary's Road. Please do not park in No Parking Zones, do not enter or block driveways or private roads around Buckeye (not even for drop-offs/pickups), and do not park illegally, as you will be ticketed or towed. Please do not drop players off at the private driveway adjacent to the Majors field. All drop offs must be in the Buckeye parking lot. A parking monitor will be roaming St. Mary's Road to help direct you to the parking lots.
Photo Day Instructions:
HEAD COACHES ONLY:
Photos will be taken at Burton Valley Elementary. Coaches should check in 15 mins before their appointment time and get their team ready, which means:
Ø Completed order forms (or print out of online order) in players hand
Ø Players dressed (shirts tucked in, belts on, socks pulled up etc.)
Ø Players lined up in height order - shortest to tallest
If your team is unable to attend the photo time assigned and would like to reschedule, click here. Rescheduling is available until Thursday 5pm prior to Photo Day and limited to available photo times.
ALL PARENTS:
The league will schedule one Make-up Day for any players who missed their team’s photo time or need a retake. However, this make-up will not get a player added to the team photo. To sign-up for Make-up Day, which generally takes place after photos are distributed, please contact your Team Manager.
