23 Share the Glove Equipment Grants Awarded Across Northwoods League Communities<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Through its \u201cShare the Glove\u201d initiative, the Northwoods League Foundation awarded more than $50,000 in baseball and softball equipment this year.<\/em><\/p>\n

Rochester, Minn. \u2013 The Northwoods League Foundation, in partnership with NWL teams and Official Uniform & Equipment Supplier, Rawlings Sporting Goods, has awarded 23 equipment grants to youth baseball and softball organizations across the Midwest totaling more than $50,000.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud to once again partner with Rawlings and our member teams to support local youth sports organizations,\u201d said Tina Coil, Northwoods League Deputy Commissioner. \u201cOur teams are integral members of their respective communities and as a League, and Foundation, we strive to enrich the quality of life in these communities. We strongly believe youth sports does just that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Each grant features a collection of Rawlings equipment, including one set of catcher\u2019s gear, ten gloves, eight batting helmets, six bats and one bucket of practice balls.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Share the Glove<\/em>\u00a0initiative supports participation in youth baseball and softball activities throughout Northwoods League communities, and was introduced in 2018 as part of the League\u2019s 25th<\/sup>\u00a0Season Celebration. Annually, Northwoods League affiliates promote the grant and collect applications from youth organizations in their local markets.<\/p>\n

The Northwoods League Foundation proudly recognizes the following organizations as this year\u2019s recipients of a\u00a0Share the Glove<\/em>\u00a0equipment grant, and the NWL market they represent:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
