BASEBALL FOR SATURDAY JUNE 6

The last week. Its been a long season but a good one in many ways. As usual the best part for me is seeing families come together, people make new friends, enjoy a day hanging around and watching baseball. The kids have made enormous strides and the level of play gets better every week. It's great seeing them gain more confidence, and believe in themselves with each successful play in the field or hit when they're up to bat. The enthusiasm at last week's games throughout the day says it all and I almost hate to see it end.

 

I know this week is likely to be another challenging week with respect to attendance since Thursday is another holiday and we're likely to be missing lot of people due to travel and Communions. As always best efforts are much appreciated.

 

And with that here is the schedule for Saturday June 6.

It's been a pleasure working with you all over the course of the season. This has definitely been the easiest season in terms of collaboration and teamwork and I'd like to say how very much I appreciate that. It's been a lot of fun.

BASEBALL FOR SATURDAY MAY 30

Hi All

- Below please see the schedule for May 30. We're officially into the final two weeks and the playoff part of the season. In the coach pitch the winners of the 2 games will then meet on June 6 for 1st and 2nd place. The other 2 teams will play for 3rd and 4th place. It's been great seeing the younger kids develop over the course of the season and their baseball skills and execution improving with every week. The 4 teams were exceptionally well balanced this year.

- In the machine pitch since we only have 2 weeks we sort of had to abbreviate the playoff aspect in finishing the season. Sorry about this but we'll have to finish with the winners of the Pirates Royals game and the A's Nationals game playing the last week for the championship. All teams will have games on June 6. No matter how it plays out I have to say how pleased I am with the level of great sportsmanship demonstrated by everyone throughout the season.

Saturday May 30th	Home	Away
Tee Ball 10:00-10:45	Yankees	Red Sox
Coach Pitch 10:00-11:15	Marlins	Reds

BASEBALL FOR SATURDAY MAY 23

Hi All

Thanks for the support yesterday. I think we had one of the best turnouts of the season despite the holiday weekend.

 

We are going to have to make a change in the schedule for the games next week Saturday May 23. Due to a scouting event I've been informed that a large portion of the kids on 2 of the machine pitch teams will not be able to attend the baseball. As such the Machine Pitch game between the Pirates and the Astros will be cancelled. For kids on either the Pirates or the Astros that still want to play they should come for either the game at 12:30 or 14:00, and we'll slot them into one of the teams in the 2 earlier games.

 

So to repeat- PIRATES VS ASTROS CANCELLED. 

PIRATES OR ASTROS NOT GOING TO THE SCOUTING EVENT CAN COME TO THE EARLIER GAMES.

 

As a result of cancelling the game starting at 15:30 we will move the senior kid game from 17:00 to 15:30.

SENIOR GAME STARTS AT 15:30. 

 

Secondly: We're down to the last 3 weeks of the season. Since we have 6 teams at the machine pitch level this Saturday will actually serve as the first week of the playoffs. The schedule for the following 2 weeks May 30 and June 6 will be determined by who wins the machine pitch games this week. The Coach Pitch playoffs will start May 30.

 

 

Saturday May 23rd	Home	Away
Tee Ball 10:00-10:45	Yankees	Red Sox
Coach Pitch 10:00-11:15	Tigers	Marlins
Coach Pitch 11:15-12:30	Reds	Brewers
Machine Pitch 12:30-14:00	Nationals	Padres
Machine Pitch 14:00-15:30	Royals	A's
Machine Pitch 15:30-17:00	Pirates CANCELLED	Astros CANCELLED
Senior 15:30-17:30	White Sox	Cubs
