Happy New Year Warriors!

We wish you and your family a wonderful and safe New Year!!  Our Warrior 2011 will be filled with wonderful things...beginning with our early spring training workouts NEXT WEEK!!

Early Spring Training begins next Sunday, January 9th, 12:00-1:00pm, with Batting Practice at On Deck (the old Swingtown).  The following Thursday, January 13th, will be our first Pitching Practice with Coach Michael Heathcott.  In order to provide our players with the most one-on-one time with Coach Heathcott, players are being assigned a time slot of either 6:00-7:00pm or 7:00-8:00pm. The schedule will be posted next week--but if you are a pitcher and know of a potential conflict, please contact Coach Dennis via email or phone as soon as possible!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year Warriors!!

We wish you a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful 2011!!

Spring Training Information!

It may be blustery and snowy outside...but our coaches have been busy planning our spring training sessions! Below is a schedule of our sessions--please note, our Batting Cage Sessions will be held on Sundays at On Deck Baseball Academy (formally known as Swingtown), and our first session is January 9th!

Spring training does start in January for our Warriors.  During this training, our team will be focusing on Batting Training, Indoor Practices, and Pitching.  Batting will be held at On Deck Baseball Academy; Indoor Practices will be held at the Homer Megaplex on Bell Rd; and Pitching will be held at On Deck Baseball Academy.  For Pitching practices, players will be assigned a time to attend.

Our trainers for these sessions include Pitching Coach and former MLB player Michael Heathcott, & Batting Coach Mark Chagnon.  We've previously highlighted Coach Heathcott, and our pitchers will benefit from his insight and experience.  Coach Mark Chagnon played baseball at Eastern Illinois University and is a well respected batting coach in our community.
