Per new safety protocols players are unable to share equipment, this means families will need to ensure that their player has their own bat, glove, helmet, catchers gear, etc. We will be hosting an Equipment Swap to exchange any outgrown gear still in usable condition. You may swap your items this weekend, Saturday, March 6 at Walt Wittman Middle School.
