Baseball 2015

It's that time again!  BASEBALL!  It's the time of year where I feel like we are constantly go, go, go and the kids (and  me!) are exhausted the time evening comes.  It doesn't help that Jackson's games start at 7:45 pm and go until almost 10 pm!  Despite the busy schedules and late nights, it is fun to watch the kids play and improve each game. 

 

Noah decided not to play again this year.  He was going to try out for the 7th/8th grade school team, but when we found out about a basketball camp the high school was hosting for two months, he chose that.  Jackson again is playing Goodyear Little League.  This year, because of his age, he is in the Majors division.  He is having to play against some big and really good players.  I think he's a little intimidated, but come next year, he should have a good advantage.  Both and Alora and Max are playing through Estrella Youth Sports (EYS), our community organization.  Max is on a coach pitch/t-ball combo team and Alora is on a coach pitch team.  

 

Jackson has been playing a lot of 2nd base this year.
