On the radio and on the news
This league gets covered, and it keeps the coverage.
It publishes a radio interview from April 2025 with Blake Burgard about its 45+ division, as a downloadable audio file. It carries a promo video made for it by a named member under the heading For the Love of Baseball. It links local ABC affiliate news coverage of its March tryouts. And it runs a YouTube stream from the Goleta Valley South Little League junior field.
Local television covering an adult baseball tryout is not something that happens by itself -- somebody rang them.
A High Cheese league page pushes announcements into the schedule players already carry and keeps the coverage attached to the season it belongs to, so a radio interview about the 45+ division sits beside the 45+ division's own record.
