NELL is an organization that is designed more to build good citizens who adopt the virtues of sportsmanship and teamwork than developing baseball players.  Baseball is our game but preparing our daughters and sons to be tomorrow's leaders and good citizens is our primary objective.  We recognize that our league hosts approximately 350 Midland children.  Through the example and guidance of our volunteers, all our children have fun playing the game we love while learning virtues that will help them as they grow.   NELL relies on devoted adult volunteers to ensure that our organization remains structured and runs smoothly. Our volunteers are the cornerstone of our league’s longevity.  NELL volunteers maintain our playing fields so we can provide a safe and fun baseball experience for the children in our program.
