Mrs. Annie Haley recently shared in a TV interview preparing for the NDIGO GALA that she and her late husband started the Jackie Robinson West Little League Team because their son, wanted to play baseball. The Haleys went to work and organized the team in 1971. The team was originally for the boys on the block. The block grew to the next block and the next block, the block grew to a community.The parents began to participate as did the neighborhoods. And the son grew up to be a coach and the wonderful young men, won the championship last year only to have the title taken away. Happy Mother's Day Mrs. Haley. The boys began to play ball at 4 years old and to date they have had about 200,000 through the league.
