🚀 Boerne Little League’s Journey to the 2024 Little League World Series

This episode of The Building Texas Show celebrates the recent success of Boerne Little League's trip to the 2024 Little League World Series. Justin McKenzie sits down with Chris Carey, President of the league, to talk about what it takes to build a thriving youth sports program. They explore the challenges of running a league with nearly 1,000 participants, discuss the importance of building community through baseball, and highlight the league's focus on inclusivity and player development through a Positive Coaching Alliance.

Carey shares insights into the economic benefits of youth sports for the local community, touching on the relationship between Boerne Little League and the city, and the need for more fields and facilities. This episode serves as both an inspiration for other leagues and a call to action for business leaders, parents, and volunteers to support youth sports. Whether it's through coaching, sponsorship, or simply advocating for improved facilities, everyone has a role in creating a positive environment for young athletes.
