Again this year we are going to have for those
teams interested in participating, the Adopt a Team Program. This
is how it works. Teams interested in participating would be adopted by
one of our own girls youth recreational softball teams. (We have about 30
teams playing recreational softball in three age divisions). Our
recreational teams will then come and cheer for their adopted team in the
tournament. This would give our girls a chance to see what softball is like
at the next level, and also might make your girls feel like they have more
support. They may even contact you prior to your arrival and answer
questions you have about the Denver area. Who knows, maybe even some
long-term friendships could be developed.
Our recreational teams are playing games
starting at about 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday night. Possibly your team could come
and cheer for your adopted team. Also, we will have other activities
going on at the same time that your girls might like. There will be a
hitting contest, a team cheer contest, a base running contest, a throwing
contest and exhibitions by professional skaters in the Skatepark facility
located at the main softball complex. We will also have a bar-b-que (menu to
follow) and a DJ to play music. We are hoping for a festive evening-one that
your team will enjoy. The events will be over around 8:00 - 8:30 p.m.,
allowing your girls plenty of time to get a good night rest before the
start of the tournament on Wednesday. I need to know ASAP if your team is
interested in participating in the Adopt a Team program. If you
are interested in participating, please e-mail me at
rgarneau@broomfield.org or call me at 303-464-5504. I will be sending
out more information later.
Please let me know if you have any questions and
I look forward to seeing you this summer.
