Batting Cage Now Open
|
|
Attention all Newton Coaches: The batting cage is open for use. Please
email Blake Hobson at dbhatlaw@shaw.ca to book a time for your team. Make
sure the email is marked Re: Batting Cage and send three times that work for
your team. The time slots available are week days 4:30 - 6:00 pm, 6:00 pm
to 7:30 pm, and 7:30 to 9:00 pm. and weekends 9:00 am to 10:30 am, 10:30 am
to 12:00 noon, 12:00 noon to 1:30 pm, 1:30 pm to 3:00 pm, 3:00 pm to 4:30
pm, 4:30 - 6:00 pm, 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm, and 7:30 to 9:00 pm. The old
tadpole field has been marked for infield practice for each level from
tadpole to midget and can be used for infield practice. The bases are kept
in the batting cage. The team that books the batting cage will have
priority on the tad pole field outside of the batting cage so you can have
two batters in the cage and the rest of the team on the field. Priority for
the earlier times during the week days will be given to the younger kids.
You should send your requested times as soon as possible because the
reserved times will take effect starting next Monday. If you want a time
before next Monday make sure you check with Blake Hobson so there is no
conflict. Remember, no spits, no drinks other than water, and make sure you
are done when your time is over as a courtesy to the next team coming in.
Batter up!!!!
Thank you
Newton Executive
