Ready to rumble.
Put some buzz in the Yellow Jackets stride.
Central Whidbey Little League’s Minors softball squad, which went a spiffy 13-1 this season, opens the best-of-three District 11 championships July 5 in Oak Harbor.
The only one of Coupeville’s three softball teams to stay together for All-Star play this summer, the Yellow Jackets need to win two games to punch a ticket to the state tourney in Montesano.
Based on this season’s results and prior work put in by these players, expectations of going to the big dance are sky high.
With that in mind, team parents are running a fundraiser on GoFundMe to raise the money necessary to get 12 players, their families and their coaches 122 miles down the road.
The team would need to cover a hotel stay for a minimum of three nights, plus food and gas.
All money raised by the GoFundMe will go directly to the team and be split evenly among all players.
If they raise more funds than necessary, any extra money will be donated to Central Whidbey Little League to help out with its other programs.
