We played 3 games, lots of runs on both sides on errors; passed balls, wild pitches etc. We played the Junior III National team in one of our games…were out matched but managed to score some runs on them…Our center fielder (Nagy Szilard) caught a long high fly ball on a dead run and both benches exploded with cheers and applause.
It is apparent that our boys learn from playing other teams…we see them improve after competitions….Our staff learns as well. Both Catalin and I are confident that with our growing numbers of children, our coaches and our program that we should be able to have an all star team ready to contest the national team the next time we meet. The field is leveled on the experience side…while our older boys play kids with years of experience are now at a disadvantage, the younger ones are more equal…and our program is starting kids at 7 years now…probably younger than any existing clubs in the country. We will have the experience on our side starting next year and in the long term.
We intend to be a force to be reckoned with and fully expect some of our boys to be playing and traveling with the nations Junior III team (10 through 12 years old) in 2011.
