MADRID LEAGUE BASEBALL 2012
Finally the season has arrived. Thanks to everyone that attended, and helped out with the clinic. We had a great turnout that far surpassed expectations. As such we're going to have a bigger league this year.
Here is the list of teams for Madrid League Baseball 2012:
Tee Ball: Braves and Angels.
Coach Pitch: Mets, Jays, Yankees, Orioles, Reds, Mariners.
Machine Pitch: Marlins, Rangers, Nationals, Rockies.
Senior Kid: Padres, Diamondbacks.
With the increase in numbers this year it was even more complicated trying to get teams put together with an emphasis on balance, safety, and family accomodation. As such I hope everyone will be happy with their team assignments.
Uniforms are mostly here. We've had to late order 2 new teams given the increase in numbers this year. Candy and snacks are here and will be ready for sale on opening day.
If you haven't heard from your coach with your team assignment by March 1 please contact me.
I'm really excited that this year is going to be more fun than ever. So lets get ready to Play Ball !

CLINIC
Hi- Just a reminder that the clinic / evaluation day will be Saturday Feb 18.
- If you played in Senior Kid or Machine Pitch last year please plan on arriving at 13:00 especially if you are registering on that day itself. We will start at 13:30 sharp and will go until about 15:00.
- If you were in coach Pitch or Tee Ball last year please plan on arriving at 15:00. This session should last until around 17:30. Registration tends to be chaotic so if you are registering on that day please allow extra time.
- The field ssession will consist of 3 stations: Hitting, Fielding, and Throwing. The kids will get marked on their skills in those 3 areas which we will then use to make team assignments.
- Our goal is to have 2 Senior Kid teams, 4 Machine Pitch teams, 4 Coach Pitch teams, and 2 Tee Ball teams. The top priority is to have well balanced teams geared towards safety. This means that no one should be playing at a level either too advanced or not advanced enough. The levels will be based more on skill than by age.
- We will try to honor requests for siblings to be on the same team, and make allowances for those that live farther away to be paired up for driving purposes. Unfortunately it is largely impossible to honor requests of kids only wanting to play if they can be on their friends team.
- We still can use more coaches. Anyone interested in helping out coaching please contact me or lets have a chat on the clinic day itself.
- In case its raining on the 18th our make up date will be Saturday Feb 25. If there's any doubt please call me.
- If you can't be there on the 18th its very important that you let me know ahead of that day so that we can assign the kids to teams even if they arent there for the clinic.
Lets hope it warms up a few degrees and I'm looking forward to getting things going for another great season.... See you all the 18th.
