“Dear Parents and Coaches.
We are all very excited about our opening weekend of soccer this Saturday and look forward to all the fun that the kids will have out on the pitch this season.
Games will be played on the far West side of Wylie High School, 4502 ANTILLEY RD ABILENE, TX 79606. please remember that we are leasing this area and want to be good stewards so they will continue to allow us to play here.
Please help us out by:
Picking up the trash from your sidelines after each game
Parking in designated areas only and not pulling directly up to the fields. If you have someone who needs a cart ride to the fields, please let someone at the Board Tent know and we will do everything we can to accommodate a ride for them.
There is NO smoking/vaping allowed out at the fields
There are NO pets allowed out at the fields
Bathrooms are located between the Softball and Baseball fields. Please help us to keep them picked up and usable.
If you notice a trashcan is overflowing, please find another for your trash and let someone at the Board Tent know so we can get the full trash bag replaced.
Practices should NOT be held on the Pee Wee fields or the baseball practice field. Those areas are only to be used for our games on Saturdays.
This season, we will also be running a concession stand at the Board Tent. We will have water, Gatorade, Hamburgers, Hotdogs, Nachos, Chips, and a few different candy items for purchase.
We hope you all have a great season and appreciate your patience and help as we work to get and keep our season going.”

“Hi everyone! Sad day….we will not be able to have fall ball at Redbud this year as we do not have enough players in each age division to make a team. If you registered online through us, a refund will be issued & if you are still interested in having your kids play, you still have the option of registering them through Wylie Fastpitch Softball Association . Their spots are limited so it’s going to be a “first come, first serve” situation. So please hurry! We’re hoping that the Spring ball outcome will be great for us! Best of luck to you all!” (pulled from FB on Aug. 30)

WE NEED YOUR HELP!We currently have two 8u teams, one 10u team, and one 12u team……and ZERO volunteers to head coach.
Our season starts Sept 13 so we are in a time crunch. If we don’t get any coaches then these girls will not get to play.
Please let us know ASAP (like today!) if you can step up to coach a team so these girls can play fall ball.
Thank you!

Give us your email and a good phone number to umpire Eastern Little League games. (The immediate need is minors and farm). If you want to umpire majors, we might work that out as well!
