At our spring and fall commissioner’s meeting we discussed the rates received by other near-by associations. It is important that our teams and leagues are purchasing insurance from Bollinger at the same rate as their neighbors. With the probable increase of insurance at about 10% this coming season, the savings will come at the right time for us, our teams, umpires and field owners. ----------------------------------------------- 2006 NYS CHAMPIONSHIPS, INVITATIONALS, WEB SITE ----------------------------------------------- The New York State Championships for 2006 will be posted on our web site shortly. Please check the web site for information on state championships and invitationals for 2006. They we be posted as they are received. www.newyorkasa.org Other information you feel would be appropriate for our web site can be submitted to info@newyorkasa.org. -----------------CHECK THIS OUT---------------- Local ASA Commissioner’s, US Sports Camps and USA/ASA Softball would enjoy the chance to have you host a Nike Softball Camp in your area this summer. It is our hope to expand the number of opportunities for young softball players across the country to attend well run programs and provide revenue streams for local associations. I’ve attached an explanation of how a partnership might work with your association for you to review. If you have an interest in possibly organizing a program within your association, please call or email me back to discuss where and when you might like the event to take place. Thanks for your time and I hope to hear from you soon. Warmest regards, Mike de Surville - Vice President US Sports Camps - Operators of Nike Sports Camps 4470 Redwood Hwy.
