December 15, 2007 - A Message from
CHHS Coach Kyle Billingsley
Chino Hills High School coach Kyle Billingsley took some time to share
his thoughts regarding the advantages of playing Little League
baseball...
Parents,
I wanted to take a minute to emphasize the importance of Little League
baseball, specifically Chino Hills Little League. As a former Chino
Hills Little League, Division 1 College, and professional baseball
player, and now, for the past 10 years as a high school coach, I have
experienced what works and does not work for the players whose goal it
is to play at the next level. The first step in baseball, as
in any area, is the most important. This step is Little League
baseball.
In the times of travel ball, multiple leagues, and various tournaments
offered year-round to players at a young age, it is important that
their first experience with baseball is a positive one. I have seen
first hand the positive effects Chino Hills Little League has had on
this aspect of the players' careers:
� Positive atmosphere of fair play and good sportsmanship
� Protection from �over-use� injuries and close attention paid to
avoid
�burn-out� at a young age.
� A long history of established rules, guidelines, and traditions
that
work and prepare the players for high school baseball.
� Chino Hills Little League managers attend coaching clinics put on
by
their feeder school, Chino Hills High, in order for the players to
learn techniques and drills that will be used at the high school they
will try-out for.
� The chance to reach the Little League World Series, which many
current and former Big League players played in when they were young
� Over 80% of the players who have made the Chino Hills High School
Baseball team have played Chino Hills Little League.
In the past 10 years of coaching in Chino Hills and as a resident of
Chino Hills for the past 30 years, I have seen travel teams start and
then fold, leagues branch off and then struggle to produce quality
players. The only constant has been the Little League system producing
the area�s top high school players. These players did not burn out at
an early age from over-use, or have their career cut short by a
preventable injury. They were the players who understand the concepts
of team, fair play, hard work, and dedication. Sadly, these concepts
are becoming rare in the players entering high school while at the same
time these are the qualities we are looking for in our Chino Hills High
school players.
Some of the best childhood memories of most parents were from their
participation in Little League. As a Chino Hills Little League alumnus,
this is most definitely true for me. I encourage all parents to
continue to support Chino Hills Little League baseball because it is
the most important step in the young career of our players and helps
put them on the path to success with us at Chino Hills High School.
