Swansea Little League Receives ASAP Award (8/25/2016)

2016 ASAP Award
TEN U.S. LITTLE LEAGUE® PROGRAMS HONORED WITH REGIONAL ASAP AWARDS FOR THEIR SAFETY PREPAREDNESS

The safety of all Little League® players, volunteers, and fans is of upmost importance for Little League International. In 1995, Little League established the A Safety Awareness Program (ASAP), to encourage local Little League programs to create safety plans specific to their facilities and league. This plan would be used to help guide that league to a successful year.

With the support of Musco Sports Lighting and AIG Insurance, Little League recognizes those leagues who go above and beyond with their ASAP plans each year. At an annual luncheon during the Little League World Series, two leagues from each of the five United States regions are recognized for their participation in the ASAP program. Little League District Administrators are also recognized for their work in helping local leagues create their ASAP plans.
