“Let’s Play Ball!”
Students in the
community
The goal of Lynwood Little League
is to impart the values of teamwork,
sportsmanship, and fair play to our
children in the community, so that
they may someday use these values
in becoming good citizens.
One essential key in achieving this
goal is through the support received
from our Local Business
Community. Your financial support
assists with the day to day operating
expenses such as: training, field
maintenance, utilities and insurance.
Sponsors not only enable children to
acquire lifelong skills but through
the advertising opportunity, their
business is highlighted as one who
holds a sense of duty in giving back.
Our vision is to bring local
businesses and the community
together for a common goal of
revitalizing the sports program in
Lynwood.
Don’t miss out on this valuable
opportunity to be a support
