These sessions will conclude when the selection of the Bantam AAA team is made. We encourage all players that would like to play for the Bantam AAA team to attend as many of these sessions as possible. These practices will allow the coaches to continue the evaluation process for the upcoming season.

Schedule and Training Plan
Monday and Wednesday Nights- 7-9pm : Cloverdale Batting Cage
These sessions will focus on baseball activities consisting of hitting sessions with defensive days mixed in.
Thursday Night 7-8pm (6 sessions) : Game Ready Fitness, #104-8485 53 Ave, Surrey
We have a one-hour session scheduled each week at Game Ready Fitness. This is an excellent training facility and the training will be run by Aaron Myette. The focus of these 1-hour training sessions will be speed and agility.
Saturday Morning- 9-10am : Cloverdale Batting Cage
These will be optional position practices focusing on pitching, fielding, catching and hitting. Depending on the number of players signed up for winter training it might be necessary that players will be notified each week as to who will attend on the Saturdays to keep the practice time structured as this is only a 1 hour time slot.
We encourage all players that would like to play for Cloverdale Nationals College Prep program for the 2020 season to attend a minimum of 2 sessions a week. These practices will allow the coaches to continue the evaluation process for next season as well as build on the foundation we have started during this Fall.
After the 7 weeks have been completed, we will take Christmas and New Years off and will have a few more practices before we announce our College Prep team, which will be mid to end of January.
If you have questions or would like clarification on Winter Training, please let me know.
Thanks, Coach Bob

Dear Sports Association Representative,
Due to the ongoing hot and dry weather, city parks have reached a point in which the danger of fire is critically high. Many of the fires in BC have apparently been started by discarded cigarettes.
Smoking is prohibited in all Surrey Parks including all sportfields, open spaces, paths, driveways and parking lots and is subject to a $200 fine per occurrence (Park By-law #13480).
Your co-operation in this matter is compulsory. By-law Enforcement will be patrolling City Parks for compliance. If individuals are ticketed for smoking, who can be linked to a team and league; facility use permits may be immediately revoked, in order to better protect public property.
Sincerely,
Sonja Boston
Athletic Services Coordinator
City of Surrey
