Practice #2 went off without a hitch and the swings are starting to come into form. We've got practice #3 scheduled for Saturday 01/21/12 at "The Batter's Box" in Hamden. This should be a nice commute for a change for those players on the team coming from Hamden, New Haven, and Bridgeport.
The GAB is helping our efforts by supplying us with balls for the trip, uniforms, and a little financial assistance. This is appreciated by the team as it helps keep our expenses down. We've also been able to secure one donation to date from a company in the local area (Edmunds Gages, Farmington). Again, it's all appreciated. The GAB has had a team in Puerto Rico in February in 2009, 2011, and now 2012. Hopefully this presence will continue for years to come.
Lastly, Hamden coach Rick DeMattie's is sponsoring a dinenr at the Italian Club in Hamden on Friday, 02/03/12. The proceeds from this dinner will go towards renting a large van to commute the team to the games. This helps reduce the size of the caravan on the San Juan highways during the moring commute. Please attend the dinenr if you can.
