New Life Member – Dave Tuckwell
The Forest Baseball Club is proud to announce the induction of a new life member – Dave Tuckwell.
Dave has been involved with Forest Baseball for over a decade as a senior coordinator, registrar (juniors and seniors), uniform coordinator, general committee member, coach, manager, parent and player. Dave was instrumental in helping to build our junior player base and integrate our juniors and seniors under a plan that has seen Forest Baseball Club go from strength to strength over the last 5 years.
We would like to take this moment to thank Dave for all of his amazing work and dedication to the Club.
Forest Futures – this Saturday!
The Forest Futures skills program will commence at Aquatic Reserve on Saturday, 19th October (meet out the front of the Forest canteen – look for the Forest teardrop banners). We are excited to welcome ~80 of our youngest players to Aquatic!
All members should have received an invite or been added to the Whatsapp group. If you have not received this please email Jen (treasurer@forestbaseball.com) or John (secretary@forestbaseball.com).
For those yet to pick up their uniform and glove, we will be doing a uniform handout on Friday, 18th October between 5pm-6.30pm at Aquatic. Otherwise you can collect prior to your session on Saturday morning.
We still have limited spots open in both the 8am and 9.15am sessions if you have friends that want to join in. Please contact secretary@forestbaseball.com for the registration link.
