Updates for May 27th and 29th

Hi all, Bit of a lengthy update ahead of this week! First up, although we're always thinking optimistically, a reminder about weather issues: If there is a lot of rain during the day, we'll do a check of the diamonds a couple of hours ahead of game time. If the diamonds are too soaked and it's unsafe to play, we'll make a cancellation announcement here and on Facebook. The other no-go is a thunderstorm; if that's happening, we would cancel the games and practices as well. Of course, if the weather turns once we're already there we'll make that call on the field. When in doubt, you can always call 905-658-0088 and check the outgoing message. If it says nothing about weather and nothing is posted here, it's game on! This Wednesday features our first theme event: it's "Rep your other favourite team" night! This means that whatever team is your second favourite (the Mastodons being your #1, of course), if you have a jersey, hat, or any other sw...

Reminder: No softball tonight (May 20)

Hi everyone, Just a reminder that there's no softball today - hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend. Looking ahead to Wednesday: our shirt order came in (minus a couple that will hopefully arrive in the next couple of da ys), so we'll distribute those at the start of Wednesday night!

Season schedule and Minor division rules now available

Hi everyone, we now have our season schedule sorted out, along with "house rules" for our Minor players. You can find both files through the following links, and printed copies will be also be posted in the clubhouse. 2024 Remaining Schedule: https://drive.google.com/file/d/12sM9buIcpXqr7ikMkIugijEaJcjINUd-/view?usp=sharing Minor Division Rules: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1r45GfrvYTQrxhb_RJc7LzYGvPLj_rXfb/view?usp=sharing Also, keep in mind throughout the season that there's a shelf just inside the clubhouse for lost and found items. Feel free to hand over anything found to one of the coaches or put it on the shelf, and be sure to take a look there if you're missing something.

Scheduling update

Image
Hi everyone, A quick update after a great first night: all players in both divisions, T-Ball and Minors, will meet at 6:00 on both Mondays and Wednesdays. Half of the players from each group will play a game (more of a scrimmage this week) while the other half has a practice on the grass. For T-Ball, this will be in the outfield; for Minors, this will be in the space behind the clubhouse. Minors will likely swap halfway through the evening. We'll post a more detailed schedule including our event nights by Wednesday, but this will be the general plan moving forward.
