2004 Red Sox Awards

One of the most important things for me as a coach is to ensure that the kids look forward to the next season or level after playing on the team. I think everyone of our players enjoyed coming to the ball park.

1. Get a defensive Shut Out
2. Play a game where every player reaches base - Accomplished!
3. Play an error free game - Accomplished!
