We Need Baseball Buddies!
by Kristi Potts on 05/06/19
Putting out a request for help of volunteers (baseball buddies) for our STAR League baseball games. As you might know this is a league for children between ages 5-18 with developmental disabilities. Many of these children have no other opportunities to participate in team sports other than this league. We are drawing parents and kids from outside of Red Oak (Treynor, Clarinda, Avoca..etc) as the word spreads about the league..its growing! So we need more volunteers!
Our opening game of 2019 season was Saturday, May 4th and we desperately need more volunteers as it takes quite a few to manage the games with these children. We have games this coming Saturday May 11th and Saturday May 18th at the RO Sports Complex.
Volunteers (baseball buddies) would help kids run bases/fielding/throwing/batting. We need volunteers to report by no later than 9:30 am to the Complex so we can get all oriented and ready for 10 am game start. Game is over by no later than 11:00 am. Volunteers need to be at least 16 years of age or older. You do not need to have a lot of experience with baseball/softball to volunteer.
If you should have any questions please give me a call at the YMCA @ 712.623.2161.
