For those who have been around Little Mountain Baseball for some time you will recognize some notable absences from our board for this upcoming season. Chris Cu, after serving 5 years (2018-2022) as League Secretary has decided to step down. Also leaving the board is Carrie Cu, who served as a Board Member from 2015-2022, including League Registrar for 6 years (2015-2021). Ulysses Yan, who served on the Board from 2018-2022, including our past president for the 2021 Season and League Registrar for 2022 Season will also be leaving our board. Ulysses was notably the Manager of Little Mountain Baseball 11/12 All Stars team who represented Canada at the Little League World Series this past summer. 

On behalf of the Board, we would like to extend a huge thank you to Chris, Carrie, and Ulysses for their efforts over the years. They have had such a positive impact on the LMB community, both with our players and families, and we will always be grateful for their tireless contributions. Thankfully all three will continue to support our baseball community in the years to come. 

This past season was an exceptional year at Little Mountain Baseball. Some of the highlights from our past season include: 

1. LMB’s 11/12 All-Stars represented Canada at the Little League World Series. 
2. LMB’s 9-10 All-Stars represented District 1 in the Little League BC Provincial Tournament.
3. LMB’s 7/8 Selects, 8 Selects, 9 Selects, and 11 Selects Teams represented LMB in numerous tournaments across the Lower Mainland to great success, winning tournaments in Whalley, Dunbar and Lynn Valley, and placing second in many other tournaments.
4. LMB hosted our own 11 Selects Tournament with our LMB team placing second.
5. LMB played a full house league schedule for all divisions, including playoffs and in-house tournaments and we had over 800 players registered to play baseball.
6. LMB’s Challenger Division returned to full programming.
7. LMB’s clubhouse and concessions were opened and proved to be an important gathering place for our community. 

Registration will open for ALL Divisions November 15th. Registration will close for our upper divisions Majors A, Majors B and Minors on Dec 31st, 2022. Registration will close for all other divisions Jan 31, 2023. We look forward to welcoming you back in the 2023 season.
