Vine Ingle Little League

08/19/2026

⚾🥎 **THANK YOU FOR AN INCREDIBLE 2026 SEASON!** 🥎⚾

As we put a bow on the 2026 season, we want to take a moment to simply say **THANK YOU.**

Thank you to every volunteer who gave their time.
Thank you to every coach who poured into our players.
Thank you to every family who chose Vine Ingle.
And most importantly, thank you to every young man and young lady who stepped onto our fields and played the game we all love.

We believe **Little League is still the premier baseball and softball experience for young athletes**, and we’re proud to be part of that tradition here in Middle Georgia.

2026 brought progress and improvements to Vine Ingle, but we believe **the best is still ahead of us.**

This fall, while we will not participate in fall ball, our work won’t stop. We’ll use this time to focus on the future—from strengthening our board and making upgrades around the complex to continuing to improve both our baseball and softball programs.

And that’s where **YOU** come in.

Vine Ingle needs **coaches, umpires, volunteers, role models, families, and community partners** who want to help us build something special for the kids of Middle Georgia.

📅 **Registration for the 2027 season opens December 1, 2026!**

Start making plans now. Invite a friend. Bring another family with you. Consider coaching a team, volunteering at the park, becoming an umpire, or simply finding a place where you can help.

We aren't just preparing for another season.

**We're building the future of Vine Ingle—and we'd love for you to be part of it.**

⚾🥎 **2027 starts now. The best is yet to come.**

*Please note: Vine Ingle does not participate in fall ball.

4 Straight Years. 4 World Series. One Program. ❤️🤍💙

When you look at this graphic, it's easy to see the World Series logos. But when we look at it, we see people.

We see players and families who choose Vine Ingle year after year. We see coaches who give their time, volunteers who show up when nobody is watching, sponsors who believe in what we're doing, board members who work behind the scenes, and a community that has continued to rally around this park.

And I can't make this post without thinking about our good friend Shane Kitchens and everything he has meant to Vine Ingle and especially our softball program.

Before our baseball teams started making these runs, Shane and our softball ladies were carrying the Vine Ingle name proudly onto some of the biggest stages in Little League. They helped set a standard and build a culture that showed everyone in our program what was possible.

Baseball eventually caught up.

2023. 2024. 2025. 2026. Four straight years with Vine Ingle represented at a Little League World Series.

We're incredibly proud of that. But World Series appearances have never been the end goal of Vine Ingle.

The goal is to build a place kids want to play.

A place families want to be.

A place where coaches want to coach and volunteers want to serve.

A place where kids can make friends, learn the game, grow up, make memories and someday look back and be proud to say, “I played at Vine Ingle.”

That's the culture.

The championships, banners and World Series trips are incredible, but they're the fruit of something much bigger happening right here in our community.

As we turn the page on 2026 and begin looking toward 2027, we're not simply asking, “How do we get back to another World Series?”

We're asking, “How do we make Vine Ingle even better for every kid and every family who calls this place home?”

And that's where YOU come in.

We need sponsors. We need coaches. We need volunteers. We need families. We need people willing to invest their time, talents and resources into something that matters to this community.

Whether your child is playing their very first season or chasing their final Little League opportunity, you are part of Vine Ingle.

Come get involved. Come invest in these kids. Come help us keep building something special.

This isn't about one team.
This isn't about one season.
This is VINE INGLE. ❤️🤍💙

What an incredible run.

The Senior League Vine Ingle All-Stars’ World Series journey came to an end this afternoon in an absolute battle against an outstanding ballclub from Hawaii.

While the result wasn’t what we had hoped for, there is nothing to hang our heads about. This team represented our community, our district, and the State of Georgia with class, toughness, and heart every step of the way.

We could not be more proud of these players, coaches, and families for everything they have poured into this journey—from winning the Georgia State Championship, to claiming the Southeast Region Championship, to finishing as one of the final four teams in the Senior League World Series.

What this group accomplished is truly special, and it’s another chapter in the incredible tradition of Vine Ingle baseball. The memories made, the friendships built, and the legacy left behind will last a lifetime.

Thank you to everyone who supported this team throughout the journey. Your prayers, messages, and encouragement meant more than you know.

Congratulations, boys. You represented us all with pride.

❤️⚾️

Tomorrow, our boys have the opportunity to play for a spot in the U.S. Championship at the Senior League World Series.

This marks the third straight year our program has had a team reach the World Series. That’s something we will never take for granted.

Opportunities like this don’t come easy, and they’re certainly never guaranteed. It takes talented players, committed coaches, incredible families, and above all, the favor and blessing of God. We’ve been fortunate to have all of those pieces come together over the past three years, and what this program has accomplished has been nothing short of remarkable.

This week, these young men have experienced memories that will last a lifetime. They’ve built friendships with players from around the world, competed against some of the best talent anywhere—including players who have already signed MLB contracts—played in front of MLB and college scouts, and even toured a major college campus.

The people of South Carolina have welcomed our boys with open arms, and the kindness, generosity, and hospitality they’ve shown our program have been incredible.

We’ve also felt the love from back home every single day through the texts, phone calls, prayers, and social media posts. Your support means more than you’ll ever know, and our boys feel it.

Tomorrow presents another incredible opportunity to keep this dream alive. But regardless of what happens, these young men have once again proven that Vine Ingle and Georgia District 5 are among the premier baseball and softball communities in the great state of Georgia and in the United States. 

We’re proud of these boys. We’re proud of this community. And tomorrow, we’ll take the field one more time with a chance to make history.

🎯 If you ask many of the kids on both the softball and baseball side who have had the opportunity to experience this, they’ll all tell you the same thing—it’s something they’ll never forget.

Moments like these are about so much more than wins and losses. They build memories, friendships, and life lessons that last long after the final out.

Just one of the many reasons these experiences are so special. ❤️⚾🥎
