The weather forecast looks decent this week until Thursday so be prepared for outside practice at MCC for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.
I'll make the decision for Thursday around 12-1 pm to say inside or outside via text alert.
Friday there is no practice as we head into Spring Break. For those of you going away, have a fun and safe trip. We'll have one more practice after Spring Break and then we play Kent City (away) on Tuesday, April 11.
Two other notes:
-If you haven't sent $20 to Sherri Bradford-Royle for team food, please do so and also look in your email for info from her on how to sign up for home game meals.
-We are still in need of someone to keep score for all our games. We use an app called iScore. This app calculates all our stats on the fly and makes it very easy to compile season stats at the end of the year. The app requires a pretty good knowledge of the game. Training will be provided. Please contact Drew (616.485.7192) if you are interested in helping the team in this capacity.
Blessings to all,
Coach Jeff

Week of March 20
Welcome to the 2017 WMCC Softball season!
After a week indoors, we are eager to get outside. We are hopeful for a couple days outside this week.
Monday and Tuesday will be outside at Muskegon Catholic's field (1145 W Laketon Ave, Muskegon, MI 49441) from 3:30-5:30. The softball field is way in the back behind the baseball field. If you are driving, you may drive your vehicle through the gate and back to the grassy area to park. I will make a final decision when I get up and will do a group text to the girls and to the text alert system. If we are inside, we will be at WMC from 3:30-5:00.
Wednesday looks much cooler so we will be inside at WMC (3:30-5:00).
Thursday and Friday look a bit warmer (Friday also looks wetter). If we can be outside, we will be.
A good rule of thumb this time of year is to be prepared for both indoor and outdoor practice. That means having both gym shoes and cleats as well as clothing for outdoors (softball pants, sweatshirts).
Hopefully Wednesday I'll get the uniforms handed out. As I hear more from Mr. Vanden Brand, I will let the girls know more about the uniforms.
Blessings,
Coach
P.S. If you have not yet signed up for the text alert system, here are the instructions:
