What a day the boys had at the Naturals Fall Baseball Classic! First Game was at 9:30am and first pitch of the championship game was at 10pm! We fought hard all day and over all went 3-1 and wound up runners up. 13 hrs on the ball field for a group of 7,8&9 year olds is a long day to say the least, but I’m beyond proud of what they accomplished! Just some team stats to show how hard these boys worked….
3-1 record
Allowed 11 earned runs
Allowed 7 unearned
Scored 31 runs
The pitching staff had 31 strikeouts
Team batting avg of .363 with 8/10 .300 or better
Those are stats of boys that just started playing competitive baseball in September! I could not be prouder of what we accomplished as a team this fall season. We had a few bumps and lost a few and gained a couple but in the end we learned baseball and played as a team!!!! I would like to give a big thank you to all of our sponsors and to my assistant coaches Chadd Buchholz and Jim Akins.
These boys are young but you better keep your eyes open for this group they are going to be hard to deal with as they get older!!!!
Thank you to all of my parents and coaches for a great fall season!!!
Coach David

As a Coach I should be held higher and accountable. Parents also need to understand and trust the process. Great things don’t happen over night.

Parents, as we head into the off-season how would you evaluate your performance this baseball/softball season?

We hold coaches to a high standard
We hold players to a. high standard

But what about you?

Here are 5️⃣ ways you can evaluate your role as a parent in youth sports

🥎⚾️🥎⚾️🥎⚾️

1️⃣ Did I control your emotions?

Be a consistent example of mental stability

Show players how to properly respond when things don’t go our way.

They will be able to get the most out of their skills when they are mentally in control.

2️⃣ Did I support them away from their team?

All players should practice their sport on their own time.

They will always have more time away from their team to get better than they will while with them.

Help them learn to take their development into their own hands.

3️⃣ Was I realistic with my expectations?

We want them to get better but just bc we want them to be ready for a certain level doesn’t always mean they are ready for that level

Just bc that’s where their friends are doesn’t mean it’s the right place for them at that moment

4️⃣ Did I allow excuses & blaming?

The longer they do this the longer they will stunt their own growth.

Teach them the difference between the controllable’s & the un-controllable’s.

Their attitude, effort, energy & focus

5️⃣ Did I think before I spoke?

What are you allowing?
What are you participating in?
What are you instigating?

The tone, the message, the impact.

Know this too, sometimes the best thing we can say is nothing at all.

Silence is okay!

🥎⚾️🥎⚾️🥎⚾️

That's It

In Review

We as parents need to focus on improvement as much as players and coaches do. The areas I can improve are:

- Control your emotions
- Support them away from their team
- Be realistic
- Don’t allow excuses and blaming
- Think twice about you speak
