Urban Initiative League
| In 2009 we have received a waiver under our current charter in West Akron to accept registration from any individual player within the city of Akron. |
A component of Little League Baseball and Softball, the Little League Urban
Initiative began in 1999 with programs in Los Angeles and Harlem, N.Y. and
expanded to other cities in 2000.
We participated in the fourth annual Urban Initiative Jamboree that was played over
Memorial Day Weekend, May 26th-28th, 2007. Through the support provided by the
Torii Hunter Project, ten Little League Baseball Major Division teams (ages 9-12),
and four Junior Baseball teams (ages 13-14) travelled to Williamsport, PA for a
series of games and educational experiences.
