Where we play?

This is for our newbies. We play at the fields behind Newfield Elementary School, 345 Pepper Ridge Rd in Stamford. See our website's schedule page and there's a link to a map.

Coaches/Assistant Coaches

We are always looking for additional coaches and assistant coaches. The league is 90% parent coached. Please let us know if you can help out by bringing out your own inner Joe Girardi, Terry Collins or Terry Francona (for those not familiar, these are the managers of the Yankees, Mets and Red So). We accept those with an inner Casey Stengel or Yogi Berra also (if you need a reference on these, see Wikipedia).

Any questions, please contact me at seth@fccjbl.org.

And now a word from a sponsor...

Dick's Sporting Goods is have a grand opening of a new store in White Plains ("The Source" Mall at 1 Maple Ave - this down the block from Nordstrom) with discounts and specials all weekend long. The FCCJBL has been fortunate to participate in Dick's Community Youth Sports program 3 times in the last 5 years (including 2011) obtaining baseballs, equipment bags and more.

P.S. As a recipient of this year's CYS program, I attended last night's pre-opening event. Its a gorgeous well stocked store.
