This is the second year we are having the Leagues since the Greenland Field reopened. However, due to the constant rain we have been in the Belle Vue Gym. Yes, we have a lot of work to do and we accept you criticisms and suggestions. While i do not like how our BVI people operate with the fact they always criticize but never look to help. For the upcoming year we welcome professional and serious persons who will be committed to being part of the committee.
