Fall Registration Open
Youth Development Program in MD
We at Angels Baseball believe that the Fall is the best time to improve one's skillset. Kids cannot work outside in the Winter and therefore most do not take groundballs, work on throwing at an extended distance; or practice baseball situations. The Spring is mostly focused on games, and very little on Development. But, we also believe that kids should play multiple sports. So, we are offering parents the option to select only a portion of the Fall program while your child is able to fully participate in another Fall sport. The focus areas for the 2020 Program are Hitting, Positional Breakouts for Defense and Team Defense. We will also be hosting weekly games, beginning September 12th. Click on the link below to learn how we will focus on keeping kids and families safe during the COVID-19 pandemic while also providing kids with a tremendous learning environment. Registration will remain open throughout the Fall. Spots still remain for Defensive sessions.
Angels Challenger Club
Dare to be Great!
The plan was simple. I would start at the end of the pack and I would go out nice and easy, trying not to get caught up in the rush of excitement. I would focus on the ground, and not worry about the many runners that were starting in front of me. I would run my own race; and aim to cover about 4 to 5 miles each hour for roughly 11 hours. I wanted to finish the 50 miles in under 12 hours. I had run a 50K race two years before, and finished with a respectable time; and did so a few days after Hurricane Sandy left a few inches of rain on the course. My feet slid out from under me after each step, and I found myself wading through knee deep water at some points on the trail. So naturally I thought I could handle another 19 miles in solid conditions. Boy was I wrong...
Kevin Jordan Announced as Guest Speaker
How to Handle Obstacles
We are honored to announce that Kevin Jordan will be a guest speaker during our Youth Challenger Club on October 14th. Kevin was a highly sought after High School Baseball recruit, and entered Wake Forest University in the Fall of 2010, with dreams of one day wearing a Major League Uniform. However, in that same year, Kevin was diagnosed with an autoimmune virus that was attacking his body. Soon after, he would require a kidney transplant. Kevin's coach at Wake Forest, Tom Walter, donated one of his kidneys to Kevin in February 2011, which gave Kevin not just an opportunity to get back on the field, but an opportunity to succeed in life. Kevin will be speaking to 20 youth on October 14th about how he was able to deal with such a major obstabcle. Kevin was just 18 years old and 400 miles from his family when he began suffering from the autoimmune virus. It took nearly 40 lbs off his athletic frame; but it never took his mind. We are all presented with obstacles in our lives and we all must find a way to overcome them. We can't think of anyone better to educate our youth on this subject than Kevin.
