Free Youth Softball League a homerun
By: Chad Plein, KY3 News Story Published: Jul 13, 2008 at 11:48 PM CDT  It's been a year-and-a-half in the making and this weekend, the Northwest Springfield Free Youth Softball League tossed out its first pitch. For some kids it's the first time they've put on a glove. Organizers say 12 northwest Springfield schools were targeted based on income and need. But, word got out and several homeschooled students and deaf children are also now involved in the program. Organizers say St Johns provides the funding.... "What sets us apart is we're free," Rob Brantley said. "No cost for parents, no cost for kids. If they don't have a glove, we'll get them a glove, if they don't have the proper running shoes, we'll get them the shoes." For more information on how you can become involved with the league, call co-organizer Derek White, that phone number is below. Organizers say they don't want to stop with softball - eventually they'd like to provide football and soccer - if the funds are available. For more information, call League's co-organizer, Derek White at 417-693-4205.
