We got this from Jeff Rhodes, sounds like a good idea!

The King and His Court - Final Tour

it would be nice to see them back in rochester one last time:

http://www.kingandhiscourt.org/

If you've never seen them, they are like the Harlem Globe
T rotters of softball

I wouldn't know who to contact to organize something like this
I know they came to Batavia years back

just thought I'd pass on the info

Jeff R

NOTE: The King and His Court has been here a couple times the last few years The first was at Dwyer Stadium in Batavia and the second was at Northstar Academy, and was hosted
by The Rochester Thunder.

Both shows were fantastic! Everybody also got to see
SUNY Brockport's Head Coach, John Dumaw pitch at 65 MPH!

Frozen Ropes Fall II Schedule, New HS Player Programs...and Fun Camps too!

Dear Friends of Frozen Ropes,
Though the leaves are beginning to turn, it’s already time to start thinking about next Spring and the upcoming season. Training doesn’t stop when the season is over; rather, the best time to get ready for the next season is the off-season. Today’s athletes stay in shape all year round. Hall of Famer Cal Ripken was known for spending three hours a day, five to six days a week in the winter to not only maintain but improve his skills. Ripken said, “When I go to spring training, I’m in the best shape I’ll be in all year.” At Frozen Ropes our commitment is to help our players, regardless of their age or skill level, to become the very best ballplayers they can be. The commitment starts with the player but Frozen Ropes is here to take each player as far as he or she wants to go. Make a commitment for 2007 by signing up for Frozen Ropes’ classes and lessons today.


Inside the latest "On Deck" Newsletter you'll find all kinds of great baseball and softball related info...Along with the upcoming Fall II Schedule, there is information on the NEW Player Development Program (PDP), the full '06-07 'Ropes Schedule as well as many other informative articles, including an interview with Spencerport Varsity Baseball Coach, Craig Bodensteiner.

JOSIE'S READY TO HIT A HOME RUN - AT WHAT AGE SHOULD THEY START?
Even at 3,4 or 5 years old, you can pitch a wiffle ball to them and see if they can hit or catch. If anything, it would increase hand/eye coordination and help in later years in any sport. I think a lot of people would be surprised to see how well a 4 or 5 year old can hit a wiffle ball with a plastic bat with only a couple days practice. In a few days they start adjusting and start to clobber the ball over your head.

LONG-TERM GOALS:

1. Get more girls of all ages involved in fastpitch softball.

2. If a local fastpitch association can be formed and can organize leagues, games and tournaments in a seven-county area, or the Section V area, there would be an organization to start in motion a master plan to build a centrally located softball complex where local leagues, sectional games, tournaments, etc. could be played. This would end the need to beg for fields, pay for fields, or kiss someones bu-- to get the use of a diamond for a few hours.
The more people who get involved, the easier it would be to build something like this. Both Buffalo and Syracuse have complexes built with public funding which are strictly for fastpitch softball!

3. Keep girls involved at all ages. Buffalo has an open league with no age limit. Females of all ages, from young girls to women who have graduated from college and have children of their own, still play in fastpitch leagues.

With Title IX and all the money spent on men's sports facilities in our area, it it is not that far-fetched to believe that a local complex could be built.
