The clinic will run from 9a to 12pm in the "old" Red Jacket HS Gym. RJJB is proud to annnounce that Coach Jim Ludwig from Victor will be our lead instructor. All you need is a hat, your glove and the desire to become a better ball player. Please feel free to contact Mike Perry with any questions? Hope to see you there.
14U Girls Softball Division
Red Jacket Baseball/Softball is currently exploring the possibility of adding a 14U Girls Softball Division. The exact details are still being sorted through but this is what we can share at this point. The season would run the last week of June through the end of July. Games will most likely be played on Tuesday nights and our team would play (2) one hour and 15 minute timed games back to back. The majority of games are played at either Midlakes or Newark. Communities that have participated in the past include but are not limited too, Midlakes, Newark, Lyons, Geneva, Waterloo, Penn Yan, Honeoye, Wayne and Williamson. This is the first time this has ever been offered at RJJS and a very exciting opportunity for RJJS. More details to follow.
Looking For YOU!
Red Jacket Junior Baseball/Softball is looking for YOU! We are looking for some new people to help us keep up with our growing organization. There are many levels of participation so please don't hesitate to contact us. The 2010 season will be here before we know it. Contact Mike Perry or Kim Moyer ASAP so we can find a position that fits both us and you.
The 2009 Season has come to a close and we would like to thank all of those who volunteered throughout the season. Without volunteers like yourselves we couldn't survive. Congratulations to the 10U Tournament Team for making it to the Cal Ripken State Tournament. They lost a real heartbreaker in their second game but I am confident when I say they all will have memories to last a lifetime. Great job boys and enjoy the rest of your summer. We look forward to seeing you in the spring of 2010!!!
Scorekeeping 101
There are many ways you can volunteer your time to your childs team and it doesn't mean that you have to be an expert. One of the many responsiblities of a Manager is finding someone who is willing to keep the scorebook during games. This can be a very intimidating request if you haven't done it before. But wait.............that doesn't mean you can't! In the "handout" section of your menu we have uploaded a brief tutorial on the basics of "Scorekeeping 101" that will help anyone who wants to accept the task of scorekeeper to succeed. It's an excellent way to help out your childs coach and be a part of the game at the same time. Please take a moment and read over and hopefully this will help some folks take the step to volunteer to do the books.
With the growing emphasis on reducing avoidable injury to young pitchers many organizations have started using "pitch count logs". /rjjb_youthsports/files/Pitch Count Log 2008.pdf This is an accurate and easy way to keep track of the number of pitches a young player throws. Allowing the Manager to help reduce the chance of injury due to over use. Please take a moment and print out a few and use in your scrimmages and games. By tracking this information and making better decisions you are helping that athlete extend their career past youth baseball.
