and look under "Handouts" for the forms. While you are there, check out the new features of the website. These include the Season Calendar, Board Member contact info, Safety Manual, Coaches Manual, and other items of interest. Contact Lilly Anaya if you have something to post (pictures, stories, upcoming events of interest, sponsorship). Those interested in coaching should note that a Manager/Coach Rules Clinic to be taught by Kerry Coffelt will be held as a two day event this year and is scheduled for March 11 and 13th. It will be about 2 hours each night. Location will be specifed at a later date.
