Team Goals

Our team has three main goals for this season:

One goal is for our players to learn more about the game and to further develop their skills. We would like all of our players to gain an appreciation for the great game of baseball.

Next, we want everyone to have fun this season. It's fun to be part of a team. Every player should enjoy making a positive contribution to the team, regardless of his talent level.

Most importantly, we hope to take advantage of this experience to help our players develop a positive attitude. Players and coaches are expected to give it their very best effort every time they step on a baseball field. Players and coaches must also respect the game, the opponent, the umpires and each other.

The following five quotes capture a large part of what this experience is all about:

“If you ask me how I want to be remembered, it is as a winner…a winner is somebody who gave his best effort, who has tried the hardest they possibly can…who has utilized every ounce of energy and strength within them to accomplish something. It doesn’t mean that they accomplished it or failed. It means they’ve given it their best. That’s a winner." – Walter Payton

"I can accept failure, but I can't accept not trying." - Michael Jordan

"My greatest concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure." - Abraham Lincoln

"If a man does his best, what else is there?" - General George S. Patton

"Excellence is the gradual result of always striving to do better." - Pat Riley


"Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it." - George Halas
