As of 5/14/14 the Andover YMCA has 180 kids signed up for T-ball and roughly 130 for 6-7 year old baseball. Our town simply does not have enough fields to handle practices for all these teams. While more fields for younger kids would be the ideal solution I would settle for the city installing some backstops around Central park. There are huge open areas that could handle multiple teams but without a backstop it is hard to practice.
