2008 winter clinic fast approaching The 19th annual Thomasville Winter Baseball Clinic is scheduled for Saturday, Jan. 19. The clinic will feature college coaches, professional players, coaches and scouts who will be coming to Thomasville to serve as clinic instructors. The primary focus of the clinic continues to be providing youth 8 - 18 an opportunity to spend time in the company of some of their sports heroes learning the basic fundamentals, techniques and strategies of the game of baseball. For some of the older participants who have aspirations to continue their careers after high school either at the collegiate or professional level, it also provides some exposure to the college coaches and professional scouts in attendance. Running simultaneously there will also be a clinic for youth coaches and parents who are interested in learning how to teach the fundamentals of the game and how to handle and prevent sports injuries. Registration for the clinic begins at 8 a.m. at Thomasville High School with the actual clinic getting underway at 9. Clinic hours for participants who are 8 - 12 are 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. while those who are 13 - 18 are 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The adult clinic is scheduled to coincide with the hours for the 8 - 12 age group. Thanks to the continued support received from corporate sponsors in this area the cost of the clinic remains at $10 for those participating in the youth clinic and $15 for those participating in the adult clinic. Included in that cost are a noon meal and a free clinic Tshirt for the first 300 participants. Pre-registration forms may be obtained by calling 334- 636-5673.
All pre-registration forms should be mailed to: Thomasville Winter Baseball Clinic, P.O. Box 952, Thomasville, Al. 36784 and should be postmarked no later than Tuesday, Jan. 15.
