Hi everyone,I hope you're all doing well!
My name is Devon Brown, and I, along with Chris Vandenheuvel, will be coaching your children in this year's 6U Dorchester Baseball program.
A bit of background: this age group typically includes a three-year span, and for the past two seasons, Chris and I have been running the program with the help of amazing parent volunteers. This year, we requested to separate the oldest players into their own group to help ensure the kids get more out of the experience, rather than being mixed in with 4-year-olds. While we expected a smaller group, we’re thrilled to share that we have 36 kids signed up, a great turnout!
With that in mind, we’ll be reaching out to a few of you to help us out with coaching and keeping things running smoothly. With a group this size, a few extra hands will go a long way to making sure everyone has a fun and engaging experience.
Here are the key details:
-
Start Date: Monday, May 26th
-
Time:6:00 PM
-
Location: Lord Dorchester Secondary School (Queen Street)
-
Duration: 8 weeks
-
Note: We may take the Monday off before Canada Day, but we’ll confirm closer to the date.
For now, the program runs once a week, but depending on the group’s interest and skill level, we may try to sneak in an extra (optional) practice here and there. We’ll go with the flow and see how things develop.
Your child will need:
Next week, I’ll follow up to assign team colours. While we'll break into smaller groups for easier organization, we’ll all still be together overall, so don’t worry too much about which team your child is on.
That’s it for now! If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out by email or by call/text at 519-319-6206.
Looking forward to a fantastic season!
Best regards,
Devon Brown
