If you have an equipment request please email with details include your division and team name and we will do our best to ensure the piece is replaced as soon as possible, please email president@pickeringbaseball.ca

 Additional Coaches Information for 2010

Training assistance for coaches at games and/or practices, please contact Don Linthwaite at the following email address:  sharpeallan@hotmail.com

 

Parents who wish to request any specific team placement for their child, should be  reminded that in order to abide by the 2010 House League Rules, and ensure the teams are evenly balanced, we will do our best to accommodate but some requests may not be met.  Please direct any requests for special placement to specific coaches to Gail Sharpe at vphouseleague@pickeringbaseball.ca

Tracking sheets for each inning of each game; these will be required in every division except blastball this year.  Coaches are requested to keep their sheets for every game until Sept 10.  House League Rotation is key to the success of our programming. It may be difficult for the coaching staff to maintain this list on an inning by inning basis; please ask for a parent to help out in this case.    

Players interested in setting up Small Group Sessions can contact Allan Sharpe at the email address listed above; or feel free to set up an interested group on your team and contact Allan on their behalf
