It's hard to believe, but week 2 is in the books. After another soggy start, the rest of the week went well. From the games I got to watch, we can already see improvement in the kids. They have gotten over the first game jitters and are starting to settle in with their teams.

Construction: The concrete walkways in the back of the park are completed and restoration work will begin this week. We thank you for your patience again during the construction. Hopefully, our new entrance sign will be in this week, along with the new entrance arches. The LYBSA logo etching between fields 1 & 2 was completed this weekend, so make sure you check that out when you get a chance. The dugouts on fields 5 & 6 are up and should be completed this week with the roofs and benches. This completes the dugout project that started three years ago.

As you have probably seen, we are starting construction on the new softball shed that will be attached to the west end of the restroom building. This is phase 1 in the exterior remodel of the restrooms, and we are still in need of additional funding to complete the entire project, so if or anyone you know would like to contribute, please contact a board member, or you can mail a contribution to LYBSA at PO Box 86, Stevensville 49127.

Fields: The rebuild of the infields on fields 1,2,3, and 9 has been completed. This in addition to all the drainage tile, should help keep our fields playable through reasonable amounts of rain. The field 6 rebuild is underway and should be completed this week.

Coming this week:

10u Baseball starts live pitch tonight: I know it may be a struggle at times, but the boys need to start understanding live pitch and catching at this age. Learning the proper throwing motion or how to block a ball behind the plate will help them develop at other positions as well. We offered many open pitching nights in the hitting facility as well as the clinics to try to get them started, and I know many kids took advantage of those opportunities and have hopefully continues to throw at home.

Pirate Treasure Quest Tournament: This weekend, LYBSA will be hosting a NSA State qualifier. This tournament will bring in over 24 teams from around Michigan and Indiana. This is a great fund-raiser for LYBSA, as the proceeds from this tournament alone helped cover the cost of the rebuild of fields 1 & 2 this spring. If you are interested in helping out with field crew, concession, or Chevy ticket sales, please let me know and we will get in touch with you. Even though this is a travel event, the proceeds benefit our entire membership and our park.


Thank you for your continuing support of LYBSA. See you at the ballpark.

LYBSA President
