2013 Hit-A-Thon / Picture Day...


For those new to FCLL the "Hit-A-Thon" may be new to you, but this is our 13th year for this very fun day. This fund-raiser allows the players to actively participate in fundraising. This is a great opportunity to let the players showcase the hitting skills they learned throughout the season and will be a fun day for the whole family. This fundraiser is our only major sources of income that pays for most of our operating expenses and we need your support. The Hit-AThon will take place on Saturday, May 11th at Russell Windsor Field.  This is in conjunction with Pictures, so you don't want to miss this event.  A full schedule will be provided very soon.
Our Goal is $100.00 per player, $1000.00 per team & $29,000 for the league...Lofty goals, but it can be obtained. 
The rules are as follows:
  • Players earn hits for every $10 in flat donations obtained (click here for donation form) or (click here to set up your online donation site). For example: a player obtains $35 in donations; this player would earn 3 at-bats. There is no limit to the amount of contributions the player can collect but a maximum of 10 at-bats can be obtained due to time considerations. 
  • An at-bat consists of hitting a fair ball a minimum distance of 20 ft. (The fields will be lined) For T-Ball Clinic/T-Ball/Rookie/Minor divisions, a tee will be used. The distance measured will be how far the ball travels until it stops rolling.  For Major/Intermediate/Juniors divisions, a front soft toss be used. The distance measured will be determined by how far the ball travels in flight.
  • A time schedule for each division and team will come out prior to the event. If you cannot make your assigned time please let us know ASAP to see if other arrangements can be made.
For every player who earns $30.00 or more, he/she will recieve an awesome surprise gift. Other prizes could be earned as well. Prizes will be awarded for the most earned, the longest drives, etc.
