What is Cap Day?
Cap Day is a fundraiser for the league and a time to get your gear. Many items are donated to us and sold at this event. It's a win-win: The league raises money and players get a great deal. In addition, lunch will be available for purchase, and a variety of businesses will have tables set up for information and sales (a portion of the proceeds go to the league).
Players may pick up their uniforms, programs, and other team items from coaches in the gymnasium. Look for your team's sign across from the stage. Please come during these times:
11:30 T-ball
Noon Majors
12:30 AA
1:00 Farm & 1:30 AAA
What times are the games and practices? The lower divisions, T-ball & Farm will usually practice and play games twice a week. With one weekday game starting at 5:30 & a Saturday game at noon or 2pm. The manager of the team will determine practice times and days. The AA, AAA & Major division teams wll play & practice 2 or 3 days a week with 1 or 2 weekday games after the lower divsion, at 7pm & an early or late game game on Saturday. The schedule is subject to the number of kids signed up & the divsion breakdown.
How does little league insurance work if there is an injury? Reno American Little League has insurance through the Little League International organization. This insurance acts as a secondary to the player's insurance (or that of the parents). This means that medical treatment will be covered by the primary insurance first, and then little league insurance if needed. For questions. please contact the league's safety officer.
