SAMMY D FOUNDATION WORKSHOP
Our Club will be hosting a Sammy D Foundation workshop for all junior players aged 12 and up plus their parents/caregivers next Tuesday, 12 January from 10:30am.
This is an invaluable education program from qualified consultants that is at no cost to our club or our members. Baseball SA has organised this for all 14 metropolitan clubs free of charge!
The outcomes are significant in improving culture, behaviour and gaining knowledge in bullying and violence prevention and positive role modelling.
The ‘Monkey See – Monkey Do’ program will feature attitudes toward bullying / violence and educating parents / club members about the impacts of inappropriate sideline behaviours.
The 90 minute workshop will have player and parent break-out sessions. It will be held at our Club on Tuesday morning, January 12 from 10:30am to 12Noon.
We encourage ALL juniors aged 12 and up to attend with their parents/caregivers.
TIP OF THE WEEK.Be ALERT AT ALL TIMES
Have a good week!
Cheers,
Bob
