    My DD attended this clinic. Great clinic, she said that she learned a lot of new things plus reviewed a lot of old. Money well spent. Look forward to their next clinic. ( She also said that each coach and player were terrific---very nice and willing to help if you didn't understand a technique they were showing ) Can't wait to see the new team play!

    Is this Brook's mom or dad? I wish I had gone myself...Not enough time during the week or weekends to get all the work done around the house. Guess thats what happens when you are on the road all summer playing ball.
    Western is playing a doubleheader on Wednesday the 19th and Thursday the 20th of October. Game times start at 4:30 on Wednesday and 6:30 on Thursday.

    This is Brooke's mom. She really had a great time at Western and looks forward to seeing them play some this spring. She (We) know to many Sugar Jets so I'll take a stab in the dark and ask is this Sarah's or someone else?
