Hello All,
We’re thrilled to share that this petition urging Little League to overturn their misguided ban on thumb protectors has reached 117 signatures. This is a fantastic milestone and we’re just getting started! Our next milestone goal is to hit 500 signatures—and with your help, we can go even further.
This movement is about player safety at the plate. Thumb protectors are an essential piece of protective gear that help reduce the risk of hand injury and allow young athletes to play with confidence. This ban compromises player safety. Together, we can drive change and ensure that safety remains a top priority for every Little League player stepping up to the plate.
Here’s how you can help get to 500 signatures and beyond:
* Share the Petition: Help raise awareness by sharing the link on social media and with the wider community. Inform your local media about the issue of restricting access to safety gear for young baseball and softball players.
*Tell Your Story: If thumb protectors have made a difference for you or someone you know, share why they are a vital piece of safety equipment that should be accessible to all baseball and softball players. Post your comments here and share this petition widely! Your voice matters—every comment strengthens this message and pushes Little League to reconsider their recent misguided decision.
*Engage Your Community: Reach out to local teams, coaches, and parents, encouraging them to sign the petition and advocate for player safety.
Together we can make a powerful statement that Little League cannot ignore.
Thank you for standing up for the athletes who are now being denied, by Little League, the choice to use this essential protective gear.
Let's keep the momentum going!
