Ch-ch-ch-changes

Good practice tonite. A little windy, but we still had a good time. Coach Arnold split out the seat of his pants, and Matt about took my head off with a hot smash up the middle while I was pitching to him. Yikes!

Changes already...

Some of the boys apparently want to hop in their socks this Friday, and it starts during our allotted baseball time, so we are canceling Friday's practice. Also two thirds of the coaching staff is helping at the sock hop, so that also weighs in on the decision.

Some of the boys are in the Norsemen baseball camp. Just a reminder that it is this Saturday at 12:30 PM in Story City. (assuming it doesn't rain)

Next Brewers practice will be Sunday at RMS at 1PM if you can make it.

And the next big change...we are moving our opener on Thursday the 16th in Ellsworth at 6PM to Friday the 17th in Ellsworth at 6PM. Still against the Royals. A team in the minors needed a flop due to a conflict. The easiest way to help out was for the two minors teams, and us and the Royals to swap our Thursday/Friday games.

Now, that gives us a lot of baseball in there. We will have 3 games in 4 days (it was 3 games in 5 days, so not a big change, but still....) So just like I mentioned at our opening meeting night, I ask if you know you will be gone for any of these games, please let me know. Funny thing how the schedule breaks down, we will have 3 games in before the Braves have played their first game. Hope it doesn't rain that weekend, or we will really be scrambling to get those games in. And if it doesn't rain, our pitching will certainly be put to the test. But I am interested to see how we will do.

Check the blog often, but here is our likely to be changed schedule for now of Brewers events....
Friday the 3rd-canceled
Saturday the 4th field cleanups in Roland and Story City at around 9:30 AM, if you want to help, we'll let you rake leaves!
Saturday the 4th Norsemen camp for those that have registered 12:30PM
Sunday the 5th practice 1 to 2:30 RMS
Monday the 6th practice 6 to 7:30
Friday the 10th Good Friday for now, practice from 6 to 7:30. Treat it like a Sunday-if you have church of family things-do that.
Saturday the 11th scrimmage vs the Cubs RMS 1PM
Sunday the 12th Easter No practice
Monday the 13th practice 6-7:30 RMS
Friday the 17th our opening game Ellsworth 6PM vs the Royals

As you can see, not much practice time before opening day. Encourage your son to find a buddy, and go play catch and keep the arm loose.
