Dragons Set for IGS Energy's "Little Big Leagues" Takeover
June 6, 2019 - Midwest League (MWL1)
Dayton Dragons News Release
DAYTON, OHIO - The Dayton Dragons and IGS Energy continue their partnership to enhance the youth baseball experience all over the Dayton area in 2019. The Little Big Leagues program, presented by IGS Energy, has been an integral part of connecting the pros with aspiring baseball players over the years, and this program extends out into the community as well.
The Little Big Leagues Takeover is one of the favorite events for youth baseball players in the area. The event, presented by IGS Energy, is on Saturday, June 8, and gives local kids the chance to "bring the Dragons to your home turf". Not only will the famed Green Team, Heater, and Gem make appearances at local youth baseball fields and practices, but Dragons players will be in attendance too. Kids have the chance to learn baseball fundamentals from current Dragons players. The 2019 winner of this experience is Riverside Amateur Baseball Association. Teams won this experience by signing up for a Little Big Leagues Pre-Game Parade.
Thousands of youth baseball players have the opportunity to participate in one of the IGS Little League Parades before a sold-out Dragons game this summer. Leagues that come to a Dragons game as part of a group outing will be escorted for a lap around the warning track at Fifth Third Field during pre-game warmups and have an opportunity to take a league-wide photo on the field. Leagues were encouraged to sign up early so, they could be entered to win the Grand Prize Game and other experiences.
