Dayton Dragons News Release
YTON, OHIO - The Little Big Leagues program, presented by IGS Energy, is a season-long program filled with amazing experiences for kids and a chance for all fans to celebrate youth baseball.
On Thursday, May 16, the Little Big Leagues Grand Prize Game will take place at 7:00 p.m. at Fifth Third Field. Two local youth baseball teams from East Kettering Recreation Center will receive the Dragons experience as they square off under the lights. All the elements from a Dragons game, including mascots, Green Team, PA announcers, video board graphics, Dragons in-game entertainment and more will be part of this experience. Gates open at 6:00 p.m. for this free event.
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.
For more information on how little league teams and players can get involved in the "Little Big Leagues" program, presented by IGS Energy, contact the Dragons at (937) 228-2287, email dragons@daytondragons.com, or visit www.daytondragons.com/IGS.
