Tomorrow IS another day!

We joined softball last February, and paid $110.  I believe $50 was for annual club membership, the rest went for softball.  For softball, the starting age seems to be four and a half, although officially it may be five.  I don't know when basketball starts, someone told me Winter.  The softball was a great experience.  There was a parade mid April, then practice and a game almost every Saturday morning until late June.  They do a picnic in June, and this year they took buses to a Yankee game.  They also play one night game.

Wood-Lean's not well publicized.  They posted the sign-up in the St. Barnabas Sunday bulletin; registration took place in Barnabas Considine Center.

are they looking for volunteers?

Wood-Lean just announced registration for track and basketball in the St Barnabas Sunday bulletin.  Registration is at the Considine Center at these times:

Saturday, September 8th 12noon – 2:00pm
Sunday, September 9th 12noon – 2:00pm
Wednesday, September 12th 6:00pm – 8:00pm

They also give a different contact number: 914 310-1875 and woodlean@hotmail.com

Thanks for the updated contact information for Woodlean.  I have to get in contact with them before registration.

Do you know if they have soccer?  Or who in the neighborhood organizes soccer.  I'm looking for a beginners soccer clinic for my 3 year old son, if they have such a thing.

Thanks for any info anyone out there might have!

I know East Yonkers Boys & Girls Club does soccer.  I haven't heard of any soccer starting at 3 though.

Three does seem a little young, doesn't it.  A friend of mine in NJ had her daughter do some kind of soccer clinic for 10 weeks with her three year old.  I wasn't sure if that was just what everyone did, or a bit young.  I know my brother's kids all seemed to be involved in sports at a very young age.  I'll look around, but probably won't get him involved in anything for another year or two.  Thanks for the info!

Our township sponsors a little league, and it is the parents who volunteer to be the coaches and stuff. We have pee wee all the way up to 12th grade softball and baseball. I have coached my girls team for the last 2 years and it has been the most rewarding experience of my life. Not only do I get to teach the fundamentals of baseball, but I also get to provide these girls a role model. I wonder if Chrysalis School Montana has a baseball team for their students to join?

Hello. And Bye.
