Join us in supporting the extraordinary journey of the Massapequa Coast Little League 12-Year-Old Williamsport Baseball Team and Intermediate Williamsport Baseball Tournament Team. These young athletes, after achieving a remarkable feat by winning the New York State Championships, have now set their sights on the Regional Level of play for a chance to represent Massapequa Coast, Long Island, and New York State in the prestigious Little League World Series for their respective levels.

Last year was truly historic, as Massapequa Coast became the first Long Island Team in 45 years to reach the Little League World Series.

This year, the journey continues for our 12-Year-Old Team. While our Intermediate Team's streak just ended in the Regionals, our 12-year-old team is now gearing up for their first regional game in Bristol, CT, to be aired on ESPN this Saturday, August 5 at 7 pm.

With success, however, come unforeseen expenses for both the League and the dedicated families of these young players. While Massapequa Coast has a formula to reimburse some of the Players and Coaches' expenses, the travel and hotel costs for families can be overwhelming, especially with short notice and the possibility of missing work to support their child's team. In addition, the reimbursement schedule, along with other related costs, can place a significant burden on our League Fund, which only charges an average of $120.00 per player for a spring season of baseball.

The Massapequa Coast Little League operates as a 501(c)3 non-profit Community Program, powered entirely by passionate Volunteer Board Members and dedicated Volunteer coaches. We believe that every child should have the opportunity to participate and thrive in the game they love, regardless of financial constraints. That's why we are launching this fundraising campaign to support both the families and the League with expenses directly related to these 2 noted Tournament Teams.

Every single dollar raised through this campaign will be solely used to assist families with their expenses related to the State, Regional, and potential World Series berths, as well as the expenses incurred by the Massapequa Coast to support these two exceptional teams.

We have chosen Fundthefirst.com as our fundraising platform because they are a proud sponsor of our league. Moreover, their verified and completely free model for campaign organizers, beneficiaries, and donors aligns perfectly with our values. Although the platform offers donors the option of giving a tip after donating to a fundraiser, the Fundthefirst.com team has graciously decided to donate all monetizations from this campaign back to the Massapequa Coast Little League.

Join us in rallying behind these young athletes and their dreams. Your generous support will not only enable these dedicated players to represent their community and state at the highest level of competition but also alleviate the financial burden on their families and the League. Let's show the world the strength of our community, united in spirit and bound by the love of baseball.
