BATTING CAGES 3&4
- Aaron Vice has offered to
work with local donors to
acquire pipe for the Board.
Two generous donors have
donated funding on the
batting cages. We hope to
begin construction and have
completed in 2010 season.
Brad Larza is
taking the lead role on
assembly and installation
once the pipe is acquired
for this exciting project.
Our entire league will
benefit from the opportunity
to hit baseball in our
future batting cages 3&4.
Batting Cages 1&2 were
donated by Orlando Salinas.
John Harrel facilitated the
donation and led a group of
volunteers to install the
cages immediately while we
pursue the long-term
permanent cages project.
CHALLENGER DIVISION
GAMES - Padre Little
League will again host
Challenger Division games
this season. Challenger
Division is for physically
and mentally disabled
children, ages 5-18. Older
division players act as
"shadow players" and assist
the Challenger players while
batting, running and
fielding. We have received
very positive feedback from
all Padre parents and
players, that this
experience is a great
serving experience that
benefits both the Challenger
kids and "shadow" players.
COACHES CLINICS
- Texas A&M Corpus Christi
Manager Scott Malone and
several players at the Padre
LL fields led Coaches'
clinics. The clinic covered
coaching tips, batting,
fielding and throwing
instruction.
