Longmont Tigers Practice Commences

Major League Baseball may as well look at Colorado as a new Spring Training locale.  Yahoo Sports reports that first pitchers and catchers will report to Spring Training in just three days, on February 12th.  As well, we are only 15 days away from the first MLB Spring Training games!

Good for them – but the Longmont Tigers, like many youth baseball teams around the country, are already underway.  Winter!  Pshaw!

Okay, maybe Colorado winter isn’t quite mild or predictable enough for MLB spring training, but is has fortunately been good enough for the Tigers to get underway.

It has been great for players and coaches alike to get outside and get to work on preparations upcoming season.  We couldn’t be more excited for the season!

Also, don’t forget, Longmont Baseball League is having tryouts this coming Saturday and the Tigers are looking to fill one or two spots for the coming season.  If you are interested in potentially joining, please contact our coaches right away.
