********** NEW THIS YEAR **********
CANDY & WIN-WIN CARD SALES
Dear Parents,
As part of your family’s involvement in the Janesville Youth Baseball program, your child is required to sell a minimum of 2 boxes of candy (ages 9-12) or 10 Win-Win cards (ages 13-15). These two traditional sales are very important for the continuation of Janesville Youth Baseball. Every year they are, by far, our largest fund raisers.
NEW THIS YEAR! You have the option of a “Buy Out”. For the “Buy Out” option, you can pay $75.00 instead of receiving the 2 boxes of candy or the 10 Win-Win cards to sell.
Along with your child’s player fee, the $75.00 for the “buy out” must be paid either:
1 - When returning your child's registration application by March 10 in the mail, or
2 - When signing up your child at the Sign-Up Night on March 15.
If you chose to not use the “buy out” option, that’s fine. In June, your child will then be required to sell his or her candy or Win-Win cards.
The “Buy Out” option MUST be paid by no later than March 15, 2006!

Age determination explained & league format 2006
Last May, the Little League International Board of Directors, governing body for the worlds largest organized youth sports program, accepted a recommendation from USA Baseball to change the league age determination date for it’s players starting in the 2006 season.
USA Baseball represents amateur baseball in the U.S. as a member of the United States Olympic Committee {USOC] and the International Baseball Association Federation [IBAF]. Virtually every major national youth baseball organization in the U.S., including Little League and Babe Ruth are U.S.A. Baseball National Members. USA Baseball recommended that the league age determination date be changed from July 31 to April 30, for the 2006 season for all youth baseball organizations.
The league age determination date is the age a player has attained as of a specific date, for the purpose of placing the player in a particular division. The old date in the baseball divisions of Little League was July 31.
Starting with the 2006 season, the date in all divisions of Little League and Babe Ruth will be April 30 of the current year/ Season.
For example, under the old regulations a player who turns 13 years old in May, June, or July of 2006 would have been considered league age 13 for the entire 2006 season, despite the fact that said player would have played most if not all the season without having actually reached his or her 13th birthday. Under the new regulation, such a player will have a league age of 12 throughout the 2006 season.
Also Little League has approved a change that provides an option for 12 year olds to “ play up “ in the Prep League. 12 year olds, born in 1993,with May, June or July birthdays, have the option of staying in little league as a 12-year-old, or going to the Prep league to play as a 13-year-old. If they decide to play in the Prep league they would be required to repeat Prep League the 2007 season as well. Those electing to repeat their 12 year old season in Little League for the 2006 season will move forward to the Prep League in the 2007 season as has always been.
This year Janesville Youth Baseball is offering the option of signing up for 2006 season via downloading an application from our Web Site http://www.janesvilleyouthbaseball.com/ and mailing it to us Vs coming to our sign-up night in person. All of the information needed can be found on our web site. Any questions call David Ellis 754-2949
To summerize: All players who played Janesville Youth Baseball last year that have a Birthday in May, June, or July, will play this year at the same age as last year except last year 12 year olds born in May , June, or July of 1993 who will have the option of either playing Little League as a 12 year old again or playing Prep league as a 13 year old. This rule was made because of the big transition from little league size diamond to the much larger Babe Ruth diamond. Those 12-year-olds choosing to play Little league this year will move to Prep in the 2007 season. Those 12-year-olds choosing Prep this year will be required to repeat Prep league as a 13-year-old for the 2007 season.
Also new this season will be an option to try-out for a 15 year old traveling team. We will be sponsoring 2 15-year-old teams that will play about 14 games in the Dane County League. Half of these games will be played in Janesville. The league play will be twice a week on the same two nights of the week, which could be Mondays and Thursdays. These two teams would also play each other once a week in Janesville to fill our obligation of league play to qualify for tournament play. Because of these two teams making up about 2/3 of the eligible 15-year-olds, all 14 year olds, and any 15-year-olds not on one of the High School Teams this sping will be required to try-out on April 1st, 2006. We will be forming all new teams this year.
Thankyou ,
