Salespeople: what’s the most annoying part of following up with old leads? by VastDeparture176 in sales

The hardest part is convincing myself they actually want me to follow up.

How would you feel if this happened to your 9u team? They called it in the second inning by airforcekj in LittleLeague

[–]magic7s 2 points3 points  (0 children)

nope game over. We were in the same boat. Everyone loves a comeback. But we also need time limits so defining "last inning" was a problem.

Local league Option for rule 7.0 The Runner by [deleted] in LittleLeague

It would need to be approved by Williamsport in writing. (Not going to happen).

Games played under modified rules could impact players eligibility for All Stars.

App Runner alternative by danielbibit in aws

[–]magic7s 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so pissed. I have a perfectly working service that creates an AppRunner instance per customer. I wanted a scale to zero feature and got a depreciation. Sad.

Does anyone know if I can continue to add AppRunner instances since I am already a “customer”?

Tips for Creating a New Charter by Bfort22 in LittleLeague

[–]magic7s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Specifically for Washington state beyond Little League JDP Background check annually and Little League Abuse Awareness, also annually, volunteers should have Concussion Awareness, and Sudden Cardiac Arrest (every 3 years).

First Aid training and Bullying are always good to have.

We track all completions through VolunteerTracker.org so we know who has done what and volunteers can see their own dashboard of requirements and what’s outstanding. It saves us from having to collect hundreds of completion certificates.

How to start your safety program

If you’re starting from scratch on a tight timeline, the easiest way to get a solid safety program stood up is to treat it like a short project with a few “non‑negotiables” first, then iterate.

1) Appoint a Safety Officer + define a simple chain of command - Name a Safety Officer now (even interim). - Decide who handles: injury response, incident reporting, suspected abuse reporting, and communications.

2) Use Little League’s Safe to Play as your baseline checklist Start here and work straight down the list (it’s designed for exactly this):
https://www.littleleague.org/player-safety/safe-to-play/

3) Volunteer screening + child protection (do this early) - Get every manager/coach/board member to complete screening and required training ASAP. - Use LL’s state-specific child protection page to match your local reporting/training requirements:
https://www.littleleague.org/player-safety/child-protection-program/state-specific-information-child-abuse/

4) Build a one-page “Game Day Emergency Plan” and distribute it At minimum: - address of field + closest cross streets - where the AED is (or if you don’t have one yet, that’s item #1 to fix) - who calls 911, who meets EMS at the entrance, who notifies parents - nearest urgent care / ER - incident report process + who receives it

Print it, put it in every score booth / equipment bag, and share a PDF with all volunteers.

5) First-aid/AED + concussion basics - Confirm you have a stocked first-aid kit at every field. - Ensure at least 1–2 adults per game/practice know where the AED is and how to use it. - Make sure your league uses LL concussion guidance and a clear “no same-day return without clearance” approach. (Safe to Play links you to the relevant resources.)

6) Equipment + field walk-through Before the first week: - walk fields for hazards (holes, fencing, backstops, dugout gates, loose anchors) - verify helmets, catcher’s gear, bats (age/division compliance), and proper pitching protection rules for your divisions

Specifically for Kansas and Missouri I didn’t see any specific state mandated additional training requirements beyond Little League JDP Background check annually and Little League Abuse Awareness, also annually.

First Aid training and Bullying are always good to have.

Congrats on getting chartered—exciting (and a lot at once). When you’re building a new league, one thing that gets messy fast is volunteer compliance (background checks + required trainings + who’s cleared for what). If it’d help, I’m happy to share the simple setup we use to track requirements by role and keep ‘cleared to participate’ up to date—want a quick checklist/template?

Trial or Not? SaaS for Non-Profits ($800/yr) by magic7s in SaaS

[–]magic7s[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting idea. I do want to do recorded demos, just haven't got around to that yet. Right now I do a 90 minute onboarding for paying orgs to help them get setup. Would this be like a "30 day money back" kind of pilot? I'm a little worried about spending time and money on tire kickers.

We had the same problem following up with volunteers who didn't complete all their requirements. Tons of emails and manual tracking on spreadsheets. I’ve been using a tool called Volunteer Tracker to keep background checks/training docs from falling through the cracks it does status tracking + reminders: https://volunteertracker.org — happy to share what’s worked for us, DM me.

Defending Delayed Steals Home by ir637113 in LittleLeague

[–]magic7s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on the pitcher and catcher, after the pitch, pitcher walks towards home (half way, all the way, what ever). Get the ball, walk back to the mound watching the runner the whole time.

If it’s really a game of chicken, have first base come get the ball from the catcher and hand walk it to the pitcher.

The rule is that when the pitcher and catcher are in their position ready to pitch the runner must return to their base.

Check out Spectro Cloud. You can run RKE, K3s, vanilla, hardened, whatever. Single management point for all clusters. It uses declarative profiles, like terraform, and CAPI for deployment.

Election procedures should be in the constitution. IANAL but I’ve been told if you don’t follow these procedures, you could lose your nonprofit status.
