ISLAND GARDEN/ LIGHTNING SUMMER LEAGUE KICKS OFF |
|
STATUS REPORT AS OF JULY 2: We hope to be done with the schedule by Friday. We have encountered a number of delays due to teams registering late and other instances of teams changing their availability after the work was done. Please continue to watch this site for changes. We will announce when the schedules are final. We also are aware that there have been a number of changes in some divisions, especially the 5th Grade. Due to the number of teams and the various requests, we have had to schedule some games at times, days and locations that were less than preferrable to some teams. We have made every effort to minimize any inconvenience but we are asking that everyone accept the one or two games that were scheduled at times that were not not preferred. We can still accept one 5th Grade team. All other divisions are closed. |
