New BGSL Website Under Construction

Hello to everyone reading this news update.

If you have been on our website before today, the first thing you noticed was the new look.  For the past five or so years Barrington Softball has utilized TeamSnap for many behind the scenes functions for our league such as registration, scheduling, communication and providing us with a website.  We have been very happy with TeamSnap and have nothing negative to say about the company or their product.  However, all that technology came with a price. 

Since Barrington Softball is now chartered with Little League, we get to reap the rewards of being part of a large association such as Little League.  One such reward is using Blue Sombrero, now Sports Connect, for the same functions we were using TeamSnap for at a fraction of the price we were paying.  We do thrive to cut costs where we can but we do not want to lack in functionality or quality just because we can do something cheaper.  The Board took a good, long hard look at Blue Sombrero prior to making the decision to drop TeamSnap and we were convinced that we will not lose any functionality or quality. 

That said, there will be learning curves for all; from you the end user when it comes to registration, to coaches when it comes to scheduling and communication, to our Treasurer when it comes to financial reporting and statistics, to our webmaster, currently yours truly, when it comes to setting up and designing the new website. 

Many areas still need to be tweaked, updated, added and deleted.  Our goal is to keep this as seamless as possible but there may be a few growing pains along the way during this transition.  We hope to keep that at a minimum.  Please feel free to send us comments on what can be improved, what you like, or if you are experiencing any problems.

Please know that your softball board is working hard to prep for 2020 and make it our best year yet.

Happy Holidays!
