Spring creeps ever closer.

While snow and frost are making a comeback, the promise of baseball and softball season is on the horizon.

With that in mind, Central Whidbey Little League is making a push to get as many kids signed up as possible, while also remaining on the lookout for adults willing to volunteer as coaches and umpires.

You don’t need any prior experience, as the CWLL will provide training, which is described as “not too intensive.”

The final day of registration for players is Friday, Mar. 4.

To sign up your kids, pop over to:

If you have questions or are interested in coaching or making “safe” and “out” calls, you can contact the CWLL at centralwhidbeyll@gmail.com.

Central Whidbey Little League registration ends March 4.

That gives league officials time to form teams, schedule practices, order uniforms, and pass on all info to district and national organizations.

CWLL is also recruiting volunteers to coach, umpire, work the concession stand, and join the board.

A new season of baseball and softball gets underway between April 9-11.

We’ll do it live!

Central Whidbey Little League will offer three chances for parents and guardians to register their children in person for the upcoming spring season.

The events will hit on consecutive Saturdays (Jan. 15, 22, and 29) and run from 10 AM until noon at the Coupeville High School gym.

Birth certificates for players are not mandatory until All-Star competitions at the end of the season.

If an adult wishes to volunteer with CWLL, they’ll need to provide their driver’s license, and fill out a background check.

Teams will be offered in T-ball, baseball, and fastpitch softball, with action open to players ages 4-14.

Joey Lippo tees off for a new adventure

Joey Lippo is the master of more than one kind of stick.

Fresh off a summer baseball season in a wood bat league, the Coupeville High School grad has returned to the University of Maine at Presque Isle.

Only this time he’s hitting campus as a two-sport athlete, and not just a diamond dandy.

Lippo, who will be a sophomore on the Owl baseball squad next spring, will also rep UMPI, an NCAA D-III school, in golf.

He can play both since the links season runs in the fall.

“I decided to add golf to my resume in college because I’ve always loved playing golf with my dad and grandpa,” Lippo said. “And I thought it would be fun to play with my friends this fall.”

UMPI kicks off a seven-match regular season Saturday, Sept. 11, and things wrap up with the league championships in early Oct.

During his freshman baseball season at UMPI, Lippo led the Owls in at-bats (57), while tying for second in hits (15), RBI (7), and stolen bases (2).

He was third in total bases (17), runs (8), and batting average (.263) among regulars.

Lippo played baseball for the Lynnwood Llamas this summer in the Cascade Collegiate League, helping them finish 16-6 and win the league’s postseason title.

Back in his Coupeville High School days, Skyy’s twin brother played tennis, basketball, and baseball.
