About:
The Long Beach Athletic Department is very proud of the Long Beach Varsity Baseball Team for their efforts today at the Long Beach Little League Parade. The team had its Baseball Day rained out yesterday so the team gave up a Sunday morning to come out and run clinics for the little leaguers at the Recreation Center where the parade ended. The pictures show a special varsity baseball jersey the team wore in recognition of the efforts of the Nassau/Suffolk Autism Society of America (NSASA). Gift baskets as well as New York Yankee tickets were raffled off to raise money for NSASA. Over $2,000 was raised! Executive Director of NSASA, Suzanne Reek, as well as Little League President Andy Hayes recognized the team and coaches. We appreciate all the efforts of the volunteers that make the Long Beach Little League run as well as our continued collaboration with the league. Special recognition to Head Varsity Baseball Coach Jason Zizza, who coordinated this event, as well as our team and all baseball coaches and parents for making this event special.
