With the arrival of summer and sunny weather, the spring season of Richmond Little League (RLL) baseball is coming to its conclusion.  As with every year the season ends with the selection of All Star teams and tournaments against other leagues in the Seattle, Kenmore, Bothell, Woodinville and Northshore area.  This year RLL fielded 5 baseball teams and a joint softball team with North King County Little League. RLL represents west of I-5 Shoreline and NKC area is east of 1-5, Shoreline and Lake Forest Park neighborhoods). All of the teams represented RLL and community to the best of their abilities by playing hard and showing a respect for the game.
