Today we continue our look at the origins of some of the trophies you will see presented at the year end banquet March 1st. We wanted you to know the stories behind the people named on those trophies and to let you know their impact on our league. Throughout the season we have players shoot free throws in order determine the best free throw shooter in each of age groups. At the banquet those winners will win the Bucky Spencer Free Throw Champions recognition. Here is the history of that award.

In our newsletter we asked that you as families talk about minimizing the number of adults and non players attending the banquet to keep our numbers manageable, so we wanted to remind you to have that discussion.

Banquet Date: Sunday March 1, 2026

Location: Our Lady of Fatima Parish Hall.

Start time: Doors to the hall will be open by noon and we will begin serving our hot dog feast** shortly after that. The actual banquet opening will be at approximately 1 pm

Finish: We typically finish around 3 pm.

** We will have a limited number of vegetarian and Halal hot dogs available.

Today we continue our series of reminders of the stories behind the trophies that you will see presented at the banquet March 1st. It is important to us that you understand that these are not just a name on the trophy, but there is significance to them as they tell the league history.
Today we feature The Trinity VanHeddgem Award and the Lenny Falcoa Team of the Year Award.

Recently we received two separate and significant private donations from Peter Radley and Richard Turner. Thank you both for continuing to believe in what we do for the children in our community through your actions. We are lucky and blessed to have the support of people around us and we want Peter and Richard to know that you are difference makers in the lives of our 474 players, more than 100 volunteers and their families. Be proud of that.

THANK YOU!!

As we enter the last week of the season and approach the year end banquet we thought it would be good to explain the origins of some of the major trophies you will see presented at the banquet March 1st. Today we begin our Trophy Origins series with two very special awards, The Carm Londry Trophy and the Tony Pettitt Award.
