Buffalo Softball/Baseball
Hey amazing group. We will have Buffalo softball/baseball this summer but it will only happen with parents and players participation. If there is to be a 10u girls or 14u girls team there will need to be volunteer coaches. Your girls success will be directly a reflection of what you are willing to put into it. I, Kevin Stanfield will be coaching 12u girls and Brandon Marple will be involved with 10u boys. If you have kids in other age groups please be a coach/volunteer. I am sending out info to enroll but without enough kids and coaches in each age group some will not be able to play. Let’s all make this happen together.
Paperwork for this will go home with students this week.
