2012 Baseball Season is Coming Soon!
It's time to think about green grass, the crack of the bat, and geetting back on the field for 2012. The Committee is preparing for January meetings, and February registrations. Its coming fast!
We are looking forward to continuing our relationship at Ponys with the Prior Lake and Shakopee teams. We had a lot of good feedback on that from last year. Everyone enjoyed some new competition and new locations.
Also at Ponys and Seniors, we are meeting with the City of Savage to see how we can make improvements to Pacer field at MW Savage School. It is the only 90' field in the City of Savage and needs some serious upgrading.
At Squirt 3 we are going to implement kid-pitch at half season after a lot of review and preparation over the past few seasons.
At Majors we will again have the South of the River Border Battle tournament which included 16 teams from 5 communities. It was very competitive tournament last year with Championship winner Eagan and Consolation Championship winner Farmington Black.
Lots of good things happening at all levels of our organization. We are looking forward to another great season in 2012!
The program is all volunteers, and we need volunteers to make it happen with 1000 players and 70 plus teams. If you are interested in helping the program in any way, please email me and let me know how you would like to help. Volunteers are needed for positions that require a little bit of time or a LOT depending on your appetite and time available.
