The Jackie Robinson West (JRW) Little League will not be playing any postseason baseball this summer.

The South Side Chicago youth team has been placed on probation by Little League International pending the resignation of two administrators, Treasurer Bill Haley and his mother, League President Annie Haley.

Bill Haley’s father and Annie Haley’s husband, the late Joseph Haley, founded the league in 1971.

Last year, the JRW Majors (U-13) won Chicago District 4, Illinois State and Great Lakes Region tournaments to advance to the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pa.

Before a national ESPN audience, the all-black team went on to win the United States title before bowing to South Korea in the championship game.

It was the best any all-black team had done in history of the event. Prizes included a trip to the White House to be honored by President Obama.

This past February, the hammer fell when new information came forth.

All of JRW’s victories and titles were stripped when it was discovered that JRW officials knowingly had recruited players outside its geographical boundaries, specifically from the Chicago suburbs.

As high-ranking officials, the Haleys are being held responsible for the violations by Little League.

Bill Haley stated earlier this season at Opening Day ceremonies that he had registered JRW with a rival youth organization, the Babe Ruth League.

However, the necessary paperwork was not filed and none of JRW’s all-star teams are eligible for the Babe Ruth League.

Some of the boys who played in Williamsport last year for JRW competed this spring and summer for JRW in the Seniors (14-16) division.

Little League still lists JRW as a charter member but has suspended tournament privileges until the Haleys step down and new administrators are in place.

Also, Little League has suspended 2014 JRW manager Darold Butler and District 4 Commissioner Michael Kelly from all Little League activities.
