The HIGHLY Anticipated FALL BALL Practice Schedule!

We are SO close to the start of the 2014 SLL Fall Ball season.  Have you been practicing?  Are you ready?  Are you really READY??

Coaches and players will gather for group practices/evaluations this week to determine team placement.  It is our plan to announce the rosters and a tentative schedule after the District meeting this weekend.

Haven't signed up yet?  Wait ... what????  You haven't ... WHAT are you waiting for??? 

Get on over the SLL website and register TODAY!

Feel free to drag ... err, I mean ... bring ... yes, bring friends along who haven't signed up yet or are unsure what SLL Fall Ball is all about - we will accept registrations at the field.  (Family, friends, and players from our surrounding towns are welcome to register for SLL Fall Ball - so spread the word!)

Pre-Season Practice/Evaluation Schedule

Wednesday, August 20: 6 - 8:00PM - Burgess Upper
     Wednesday's practice will give players an opportunity to run around and have some fun while shaking off the summer sand.  Players should come prepared to play ball - dress appropriately and bring whatever gear makes you rock the diamond!
     Coaches will be evaluating your "mad skills" on the field and behind the plate and determining best group placement.

Thursday, August 21: 6 - 8:00PM - Burgess Upper
     Thursday's practice will see players divided into appropriate age/skill groups and will focus on the basics (hitting, fielding, running.)  Players should expect to be shifted between groups as needed.

Friday, August 22: 6 - 8:00PM - Burgess Upper
     Friday will be your final chance to impress the scouts (okay, not really, but you should play as if scouts were there!)  If we have everyone there on Friday, we'll split the players into "teams" and scrimmage.

Concessions will be open with a limited menu.  Most likely hot dogs, popcorn, and drinks.
