Hey guys welcome to the team! Hopefully we'll have lots of fun this fall and learn a little too.
I've got Fielf 4 at the following times:
Tue 5:30
Thu 7:00
Fri Open (anytime we decide)
Mon 7:00
Tue 5:30
We play on the next Thursday!
Now this does not mean that these are practice times. This are the times I have the field to be able to practice on it. We'll talk Tuesday to see what times are best for all of you.
I need at least 3 more coaches to help with games and practice. I'd love to have another coach who could pitch to the girls, but I'll do it if we don't I'll do it.
Feel free to talk to me about anything. It's been 6 years since I've coached this age group but I have done it and have one championship in 6U and 8U and about 4 years of coaching All Stars or helping in All Stars.
I'll see everyone Tuesday at 5:30 on Field 4. Have the players bring their helmets and gloves.
Thanks....

A New Team...
I haven't coached in a little over a year and it's been longer since I've coached 6U (Sweetees is what we called this age back then). I'm looking forward to coaching your daughters and teaching them about softball.
We have a lot to learn during the fall. How to hit, base running, and how to catch. To do this I plan on putting the kids through lots of drills. I'll also need the help of LOTS of parents. At this age these players have SHORT attention spans so we want to keep them busy! And when they are busy, they are learning.
We will use black shorts and if you choose to use pants, choose black ball pants. I also would suggest all players get a game face. This is a protective device the player wears to help protect the face from injury. It also keeps the player from being afraid of the ball. It doesn't hurt when they get hit.
My daughters, Delaney and McKenna will help coach when they are not busy with color guard, softball or volleyball.
I need 2 base coaches and a catcher so there will be 3 coaches "on the field" besides me. Also we need a "Dugout Mom or Dad" This person has the hardest job. Getting helmets and gloves on and off, and getting our next batter ready to go.
It should be a fun fall, I will let all the girls play different positions to help them get ready for the spring, but we won't change up positions all at once. If you would like to talk to me about where your daughter is playing or batting, please do so after or before practice, NOT during a game.
Be on time for all practices and games. be there BEFORE the time that I specify. We practice to get better, and we get better in order to win.
