Baseball/Softball Parents
Baseball Equipment
We furnished a cap, jersey, and pants for the uniform.
Team equipment that we furnish includes: baseballs, shared batting helmets, shared bats, shared catchers’ gear (including a catcher's mitt).
The minimum that you need to furnish is a baseball glove, athletic shoes (plain ‘ol tennis shoes), and a bottle of water for hydration.
If you want to buy something for your player(s), some suggestions are (none of these are required):
- Batting gloves
- Batting helmet
- Baseball shoes (no metal cleats)
- Catcher's Gear
NOTE: For Softball we will be furnishing each team with fielding masks to use for infield defensive players.
PARENT INVOLVEMENT
Parents can play many roles in sports: current or former athlete, coach, fan, motivator, role model or critic. A few studies have shown that family members may influence an athlete’s involvement and achievement in sport more than coaches. Parents also are the first and most critical agents at socializing sports.
