Clinics
Were a Huge Success!
Last Saturday was a lot
of fun for those participating in the three clinics that concluded on
March 5. Twenty-three
 softball
girls (ages 5 to 12) were "squashing the bug" in one way or another in
the Fundamentals Clinic. Following the red-eye clinic, forty-one girls
were swinging away at the Softball Hitting Clinic that wrapped up a
noon.

The day concluded with
thirty-six guys participating in the Baseball Skills Clinic with the
grand finale - a wiffle ball game that brought smiles to the parents and
coaches observing the event. By 4:30, players were drifting out of the
gym with their new t-shirts. Be sure to catch the Neighbor's section of
the Erie Times News - Bob Healy was at the clinic taking photos.
Northwestern Little
League expresses appreciation to Coach Bricker, his staff and the Lady
Cats players for conducting the softball clinics. Thanks also to Coach
Light, his staff and the Wildcat baseball team for instructing the
baseball clinic. Our young adult players were excellent role models for
Northwestern Little League youth.
Next step - season start
- good luck to all Northwestern Teams out there! Let's get rid of this
snow and play ball.
