“On behalf of the entire East Region staff, we are excited to welcome Delaney to the Little League team,” said Aaron Weber, Little League East Region Director. “Delaney’s previous experience working as a youth educator, along with extensive history both playing and coaching softball, will make her a valuable asset to the operations here in Bristol and will bring the necessary resources and support to the local leagues across the East Region.”
