Buddy/Player “Meet and Greet” Day Successful

The anticipation was strong—but it was hard to tell who was more excited:  The players meeting their buddies for the first time, or the buddies meeting their players!

Two sessions of buddy/player “meet and greets” were held on Saturday, May 9, in anticipation of opening day the following week.  The “meet and greet” sessions gave the players a chance to get to know their buddies so they would be comfortable playing with them the next week during the games.  They also gave the buddies a chance to talk with players and their parents to understand their special needs and learn how to best help their players during the games.

The end result—players and buddies who couldn’t wait until Opening Day to get out on the field together!
