Forms should be emailed to <a href="mailto:jthomas@ventnorcity.org">jthomas@ventnorcity.org</a>.</p> <p>The issue of COVID-19 has complicated the ability of the association to hold on person registration dates for the upcoming season. We are hereby gathering a database of players, coaches and volunteers electronically. Our plan for 2021 is to have a safe and successful season by following all required medical guidelines using the standards for the CDC. For this to happen, all players and volunteers must complete and return the <a data-evo_media_link_media_id="317873" href="https://www.ventnorcity.org/media/Ventnor Little League Registration form-2021.pdf">electronic form</a>. It can be returned via email or can be printed and dropped off, either at Ventnor City Hall or to the Ventnor Recreations Department. Players and volunteers will be contacted when authorized by the league and the City of Ventnor to begin group practices and games. It will be at that time that all registration fees will be required.</p> <p>We currently need to assess our players numbers and gauge the interest of our residents to allow us to plan what division levels and the number of teams we will be forming for 2021. Persons that do not return forms for players will hinder the ability of the association to establish teams and plan for the upcoming season. Players will be granted slots on teams on a first come, first serve basis as rosters fill up. Please return the form ASAP. Players that register late may not be able to be added to rosters.</p> <p>It is the hope of the association to provide a quality experience for your children in a safe and responsible manner, but for this to happen we need you to respond.</p> <p><a data-evo_media_link_media_id="317873" href="https://www.ventnorcity.org/media/Ventnor Little League Registration form-2021.pdf">Ventnor Little League Registration form-2021.pdf </a></p> https://www.ventnorcity.org/news/post/11280/Community Yard Sale Scheduled for June 12 and 13, 2021https://www.ventnorcity.org/news/post/11820/<div class="fr-view"><p>Ventnor will host a Community Yard Sale over the weekend of June 12 and 13, 2021.
