Rain, rain, go away!
There is a lot of rain in the forecast for this week! If your game is cancelled, your coach will be notified by the Board when the decision is made at 5PM, per league rules. Cancelling a game means rescheduling fields that are likely already booked, rescheduling umpires, and a lot more work on the behind the scenes than most people realize. We will avoid cancelling games if we can! If games are not cancelled, players should report to fields as usual (no matter the radar!). Games will be delayed or suspended by the umpires if necessary due to lightning or inclement weather.
Please make sure you have the notifications turned ON for the app your Coach is using to communicate with your team. You should also make sure that you have our email address - apacboardmembers@gmail.com - saved to your contacts, so that we don't end up in spam and that you are following us on Facebook for the most up-to-date information!
Shack Open Friday!
Help Us Help Your Kids!
Due to lack of volunteers, at this time, we are unable to open the Shack on Saturdays. We accept help from NJHS, Interact, and NHS students as well and will sign hour verification slips.
Construction Update!
- Pinecrest Drive will be closed at both Southfield and Pelham will remain closed throughout the rest of our season. Access to Cunningham Park will only be from Ecorse, through the neighborhood, and through the Shenandoah turn around into the park and the Osage turn around to exit the park.
- Champaign Park's parking lot is NOW OPEN and absolutely beautiful! This was a huge, much needed project and we are so thankful it is done, open, and ready for our players. Please take care of this lot and still keep an eye on your children around the ongoing construction.
Support Our Sponsors!
As you begin checking off your list of home projects, please support the businesses that support your kids! Not all do and those that do deserve our support right back! You can click the business' logo below to be directed to their website or Facebook page.
Game Etiquette
As an attendee at any APAC game, your sportsmanship is just as important as your child's. Whether you realize it or not, your player is always observing and learning from you. You should treat the field, each other, and the children playing (and sometimes umpiring) with respect as you represent our Club. This is recreational baseball. There will be no college scholarships handed out this season.
Inappropriate or disrespectful behavior towards other teams' coaches or parents, umpires, or any players will not be tolerated and should be reported immediately to the Board at apacboardmembers@gmail.com.
When attending games, please make sure you pick up your trash, refrain from smoking or vaping (especially around other people's children), and supervise your children to ensure no damage is being done to the fields or surrounding areas.
