Matt Orth Award

 WESTERN SPRINGS LITTLE LEAGUE
MATT ORTH GOOD SPORT OF THE YEAR AWARD

 

Matt Orth played Little League baseball in Western Springs.  At the age of 11, Matt died of cancer. Matt was always described by his coaches and teammates as being a team player and a good sport. The Spring Rock Park “B” East field was named in Matt’s memory upon his death almost 20 years ago.

The Matt Orth Good Sport Award was first given in 2002 to one player from each of Western Springs Little League's youth baseball and softball teams who demonstrated a particularly high degree of sportsmanship.  This award ceremony continues today and remains one of the hallmarks of our organization.
