Last practice today and upcoming tournament

Hi parents!

 

We will have what will most likely be our last practice today at 3 pm at Winthrop.  Our last 2 regular season games are Tuesday and Thursday.   

 

I also want to fill you in on the year end tournament.   The tournament starts this coming Friday, May 2nd and our first game will most likely be 8 pm on Friday night depending on how Sherriffs and our team do this week.    It looks like we need to win one of our games this week to be 5th place.   This does not sound like a big deal but the advantage in not being 6th is not having to play our 1st game on Saturday at 5 pm and having to face the 3rd place team.   

The tournament is double elimination running from Friday to Sat May 10.   I'll hand out a schedule at practice today but the teams will be designated only as 1st, 2nd and so on.     I still want you see this now even without the team names so you can block some possible times for games.

SKILLS DAY ON SATURDAY!!!

Talcor Parents:

 

This is a reminder about Skill Day this Saturday.  from 11 to 2:30.   I'd like to get a count of who wants to participate.  I think we can only sign up 3 players per competition.    I've pasted in the info below.    We will have practice at 3 pm that same day.     Also, obviously you don't have to do the individual events but it would be fun to do Around the Horn if we have 7 players.  If not, we can combine with another team.

 

Just shoot me an email to let me know or call me if you want to know more, 556-1083.

 

Jim

WP Tournament and All Star Information

Dates have been set for the upcoming tournament and are as follows -

Winthrop Park Tournament - May 2-10

Allstars -
11U-Year Old - Meridian Park June 9-13, 2008
12U - Meridian Park June 9-13, 2008
12B - Tom Brown Park June 9-13, 2008

State Tournament - July 10-13

11U Capital Park - Tallahassee
12U Fort Caroline (Jax Beach)
12 B Ocala

Just a few notes of interest regarding Allstars from experience
last year - If your child makes the selection it requires a large
amount of time commitment both on players and parents. Practice is normally daily and will vary in time (some morning practices some afternoon) in order to get them tuned to time changes.

 

You never know what time of day your tournament games will start - could be 8:00AM or 8:00PM so the boys need to be prepared.

 

There are additional costs involved - last year it was $125 registration plus uniform costs and a few batting instruction sessions. And of course the out of town cost.

 

There was fundraising involved on the 11U Team
which helped with the travel cost. All in all a great
experience was had by all and it was time well spent.!
