Fw: Spring Schedule

Parents,
 
Don't forget meals on wheels tomorrow.  Also, we will try to practice some this weekend for our season opener on Tuesday evening. 
 
Some of the boys will be playing their final basketball game in the OKC arena this weekend so they may not be there.
 
Please let the boys know how proud I am of them and let them know that this is a process. They must gain confidence every time they play together and that is the key word "together". Please encourage the boys to play as a team and work on being the best team member possible.  DO NOT worry about individual stats or how many hits they did or didn't get. If we work together, this will be an unstoppable team. If we concern ourselves with personal goals and batting averages (@ 10 years old) we will miss the point and be mediocre at best. Encourage  them at all times to keep their heads up and not to worry about a mistake or bad play.  Baseball has a way of exposing mistakes or bad plays more than most any other sport but it is very important that the boys learn to overcome adversity and succeed when they are down. We are very close to that right now!!!!  We played poorly in the first inning in our last game but by the end of the game we were still in it and fighting back. Even if we do not realize this now, there will be many life lessons that come from our time with the Bears..
 
Go Bears!!!!!
