The event was an opportunity to interact with over 30 players in the league. Teams from all over Long Island practiced together for the day. GCAA Girls Softball has been working to connect with the wider community to assist in the development of young athletes.
Prior events have brought together local teams to train with Adelphi College and the Mashers Inc. program. Each experience is a new opportunity to interact with higher level athletes in the sport.As Ryan Sievers said; “It was amazing to meet an Olympian. She had real enthusiasm for the game and taught us a lot. We even got to wear her three gold medals!”
The program was sponsored by Manhasset PAL Softball. GCAA Girls Softball is open to all youth in Garden City, grades kindergarten through 8th.
GCAA will be hosting “Softball-APalooza” on the weekend of Saturday June 23rd (with a June 24th rain day) at Garden City Community Park Fields and Pavilion.
