"Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jacks..."

Jan 25 Posted by Julie King in Parent Blogs 1

I know it is still January but I am beginning to hear that famous song in my head - you know the one about BASEBALL (which I sing loudly and WAY off key)! I am a Mom to two ENERGETIC boys who both have a love for the game - so in our house, January means it is time to begin thinking about baseball. Now I know many of you will roll your eyes and say "Ugh, baseball is so boring" but I disagree. To me there is nothing more exciting than to see the look on my son's face when he makes a catch or makes contact with the ball for a hit. WE LOVE BASEBALL!

Both of my boys play for the Grassland Baseball League here in Franklin. I am so thankful to have found an organization that believes in teaching children that playing sports is about more than just competition. It is about learning the game, being a contributing member of a team, and most of all - HAVING FUN!

SO what are you waiting for? Registrations are open now. In the Grassland Baseball League, boys and girls from age 5 - 17 (as of April 30th) are eligible to register but each league has their own age restrictions. Nashville is fortunate to have many wonderful baseball organizations throughout the city - so find one near you and sign those kids up. LET'S PLAY BALL!
