Falls Little League gets new name

Fall City Little League has a new name, meant to better reflect its geographical area.

The organization still offers baseball and softball for youth, but is now known as Falls Little League. For this season, the former Web site address, www.FallCityLittleLeague.org, will still be available for registration and general information. However, families may also access its new Web site at www.FallsLL.org.

The new league name reflects the league's goal of combining Snoqualmie Valley communities to provide a safe, fun, positive, educational and fulfilling experience for boys and girls playing baseball and softball.
