Each year we have over 250 boys competing in twelve or more teams. Leagues run from ds early in May as - possible, to the end of June. This has proved the best method, as after the end of school, it is very difficult to run leagues. After that time, Allstar teams are formed for outside competition. For several years now, we have tried to form a Minor Baseball Association, similar to the Minor Hockey Association. Unfortunately, adult interest in baseball is not as great as that of the kids, so that all leagues and allstar teams are still handled by a very few. This year we'll try again. WE NEED YOUR HELP!!! If you can assist in ANY way, contact the Recreation Office. Help us to keep baseball growing in Terrace Bay.
