Oceanside Minor Baseball held its first ever Winter Development Camp for Pee Wee and Mosquito age players this year and it was a great success. Many thanks to the volunteers who made it possible: Kurt Bowles, Andy MacDonald, Jim Seredick, Ian Kellow, Derek Leik, Shane Ackerman, and Mike Parlow.
During the last two sessions, Coaches Seredick and Bowles used the Dartfish Video Training Program to instruct players on hitting. Here are some of the great swings we saw.
Oceanside Minor Baseball, with help from the Oceanside Orthodox Softball Association, is pleased to announce the creation of the Stanley Chong Senior Umpire Scholarship in honour of Stanley Chong's ongoing commitment to umpiring in Oceanside. Stanley is a lifetime member of the BC Umpire Association as well as a long-time respected and valued umpire in District 69. Applications for this $500 scholarship will be received from graduating students of Ballenas Secondary School and Kwalikum Secondary School.
Oceanside Minor Baseball is proud to support our alumni as they strive to achieve their educational goals. Each year the association awards the Oceanside Minor Baseball scholarship to qualifying players who will be continuing on to college or university.
Congratulations to Grad 2011 recipients Michael Foulds and Mitchell Powelson of Kwalicum Secondary. We wish Michael and Mitchell great success in their academic careers.
