"Central City Baseball - We Play Hardball!"
****************************************************
THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO CAME OUT FOR THE BNZ COMMERCIAL SHOOT!!!
The commercial will be done in a couple of weeks and we'll let you know when it's going to start appearing.
*************************************************************************************
NORTH SHORE BASEBALL IS AIRBOURNE!
Chris Akroyd, our CC U10 coach last year, is starting up a U10 and U12 squad with fellow parent/coach Randy Brooks. They've started indoor practices and all North Shore kids ages 7 to 11 are invited to join in! Don't worry if you haven't played before, you'll learn how.
Next indoor practice will be held Saturday August 16th, from 12:30 to 2:30 pm at the North Harbour Cricket Centre (inside Massey University's Recreation Centre).
If you have any questions, please contact Coach Chris at chrisakroyd@yahoo.com or phone him at 415-7077.

*********************************************************

We're sad to announce the passing of Roderick Jones, Central City Cub and dedicated baseball fan.
Roderick was a wonderful kid
and helped make our first season special.
He was also the recipient of the Coach's Award
from the Central City Cubs for the 2007-2008 season.
The club will honour his memory this coming season.
*********************

Central City is looking for Senior Players!
Okay, maybe not as old as that guy up there...
but if you're not a kid anymore and you still want to play ball,
email us at info@centralcitybaseball.org.nz!
