Chino Hills 2nd Place!

Wow, wow and wow! The team played incredible this weekend. They faught from behind to pull off the first victory and came bats ablazing the next 3 games.

Ok, could there have been some bending the rules or unfair or mishonest addition of the 3 and 4 hitters. Maybe, but we need to always be the better people, parents, fans and coaches. We won't go to those levels. The games are about the boys learning, growing and having fun playing at a much higher level. Regardless of the outcome, they battled and hung in there with Pico Boys 9u All Star Team and could have easily won. A 9-6 loss is nothing to sneeze at when it is 11:00 pm and 3 games in a row.

CHAMPIONSHIP GAME WITHOUT A LOSS IN POOL PLAY OR SEMI'S IN FIRST TRUE 9U TOURNAMENT! WOW, HOW PROUD WE WERE AS COACHES AT THIS TEAM.

Thank you Alex, Dexter and Marc for being there with us because we couldn't have done it without you! Thank you to your parents for sticking it out in the cold cold nights.

Next tournament: January 3-4 Oxnard

I need to know by Weds who is in and who is out! This is our last tournament til Presidents Weekend in February.

Jared, we missed you this weekend and Dexter hope your ankle is doing well!

Thanks to Martin and Laura for the pics, hopefully everyone saw them!

Coach Bob

Ventura Tournament!

What a great job everyone did in this first tournament! Scoring 21 runs in 3 games against 3 ten year old teams is fantastic. We still have a lot to work on but we will get there and they showed a lot of heart to keep playing after being down in each game.

Practice this week Monday and Thursday!

Info!

Great job everyone hitting today. We have 10 confirmed for the 13-14 in Ventura and possibly 11 if Dexter can join us. We have 9 confirmed for 20-21 in Chino and possibly 11 if Jared and Ben join us, if not then we will pick up one more for this tournament.

Practice was very good on Monday and we will have a couple of days to practice next week as well.

Thanks to Gabe, Jared, Ben and Dexter joining us!

This team is exciting me and I am expecting great things. Working on line ups and stuff and we are strong top to bottom it is a very good thing.

Housekeeping items:

1. Please give me a check or cash for $45 on Monday for the Ventura Tournament and don't forget you need to bring a unwrapped gift worth $10.

2. We still don't know about uniforms so if they are undecided by tomorrow if we will get them by next week I am going to order shirts so that we have them just in case. I will try and keep them under $25 and then we can use them for practice.

3. Hopefully we will do that bag exchange next Thursday. They are giving us bags that are worth double of that we paid.

4. Don't forget to get white pants with the black piping down the legs for the tournament if you have not done so already. I have not been able to find Cameron's size at the stores but I found a site to order them for $31 and free shipping so let me know if you need to order them as well.

5. Lastly, make sure the boys are taking care of their hats. We only have one right now.

See you Monday!
