Chief Coach wades into the issue

Dave,


On reading your comments that the T.B.A.W.A. over the past couple of years are promoting baseball rather than promoting Tee-Ball. I find your comments without truth or fact but rather by a bad experience by you and you have not been attempting to repaire the damage.
Yes as Chief Coach of the TBAWA I have been promoting diamond sports and the BWA being the only one willing to assist tee-ball in Western Australia.
I want what the majority of clubs are striving for and that is a pathway to other diamond sports when our young players are ready to move on with the skills and knowledge to baseball or softball.
For the past three years, yes I have been working with baseball.
Going to schools with Steve Fish (High Performance Baseball Coach) helping local clubs boost the numbers of registrations.
Super Squad games at Baseball Park playing on the main diamond.
Tee-Ball camps at Baseball Park and at Wanneroo over the past 3 years with assistance from BWA and Perth Heat.
These are only a few and I could go on and on with the positives the the clubs have received over the years I have been involved.
We need to meet and air our differences for the benefit of all clubs. Would only be too willing to answer any questions at TBAWA council meetings.

I also am prepared to put my name to paper as this generates discussions that we as adults take on implementing or changing how tee-ball is played.
