DISCLAIMER: I am not a writer or critic, just an everyday mom who really loves baseball...especially when my kids are on the field!!!

My blog was created to track my children's special moments on the field and their experience(s) with their respective teams. It is written through a mother's eyes. The intent is solely for the purpose of reliving the game(s) during post season. From my experience, there will be some bad plays / unfortunate incidents, and these may be recorded in order to follow the game(s). There will also be times when I will have questions or doubts...but these are MY OWN PERSONAL OPINION(S).

I apologize in advance if I do, but I do not intend to criticize any player, or coach...I SIMPLY CALL IT AS I SEE IT!!!

First Showcase for the Year - January 22, 2017

Last Year Aaron attended the Smith Brothers Showcase on the recommendation of another Coach, and it was a good event. So this year, when the invitation email came, he wanted to go and show of his skills again.
 
The event was held at the same location as last year, the Smith Brothers baseball club in New Lowell, Ontario, and the players had to be there for 9:00 a.m.  New Lowell is just over an hour drive from Toronto so the trip wasn't too bad being that early in the morning.  Not a lot of traffic but the fog was a bit much in certain areas.
 
We made it to the club just at 9:00 a.m. and the parking lot was already full.

As usual, there were a lot of really good ball players showcasing their skills and talents.
 
Here's Aaron doing some batting practice:
