Winter Workouts 2012. 36 players participated during nine

Wednesday's in the batting cage were offered as well. Great job by
all and the West Hartford Amateur Softball League wishes you a
great spring season!! (see "NEWS!!!" page to read player
feedback)
Janice Corey (1935-2010) pictured with Christina Corey (her
favorite softball player) was the inspiration for the safety
fencing for players at Sterling Field Number 1. In lieu of flowers
money was donated to the WHASL. The league was set to pay the
fencing company, in part with these monies, but the town paid the
bill because they felt it was their responsibility to protect the
players. Instead the monies went, and will continue to go, to
something she would have enjoyed.....our annual Jamboree Day. A day
of fun, games, contests, and food. She is missed by her family and
the softball community.
Enriching lives through summer softball since
2009.
We
are a 501 (c) (3) public charity organization

How it
started...
The Santo Driving School Dynamite. The
inspiration for the WHASL.
Jeff Jacobs quote from the Hartford Courant 11/5/2010- "Wins in
high School are only as good as the lessons learned. Losses are
only as bad as the character built. And if you think otherwise,
here's a suggestion. Turn off the talk radio and start examining
your priorities."
Demi quote: "Don't be that girl." :)
Volunteers/Coaches
are needed.....
A player may
forget what you do, and they may forget what you say, but they will
never forget the way you made them feel.
League
Goals: Through
the game of softball, players, volunteers, and sponsors will work
together to enrich the lives of self and others. Coaches and
volunteers will role model, teach, and empower players to not only
develop their skills in softball, but to challenge the player to
become valued as teammates, opponents, and citizens of the world at
large.
