HYB Baseball Hitting Clinics
Hanover Youth Ball Families,
We are excited to announce that registration is open for our 2022 baseball hitting clinics !
To continue the growth and development and confidence of our players and to continue the success of our program, Hanover Youth Ball has joined once again with Hit Dawg Academy to provide hitting clinics for Hanover Baseball players. This is great opportunity for Hanover players to learn from experienced, trained hitting coaches.
Hit Dawg Academy is a baseball and softball academy dedicated to ensuring the proper development of all kids. It does not matter your age, nor size. They start by working on the basic needs so that kids are able to compete at all levels. Hit Dawg Academy will do the following for you:

Hanover Youth Ball/Hit Dawg hitting clinics are for boys playing Hanover Baseball ages 9-16. Clinics are broken down by age group. There are two sessions of 4 clinics each running in January and February. Clinics are on Friday or Sunday, depending on age group. SPACE IS LIMITED.
Due to generous donations from our sponsors, Hanover Youth Ball is able to offer these hitting clinics to Hanover baseball players at 60% discounted price. What would typically cost $100 for 4 sessions of group clinics is only costing Hanover Baseball players $40.

Hanover Youth Ball Board Members Need Your Assistance
With Board members’ terms ending in 2021, there are duties and key roles that need to be filled. Even if you do not want to be an official Board member, but are willing help assist the Board, here are the following areas that NEED filling:
12U Baseball Tournament Coordinator- usually 3rd weekend in July, oversees tournament (Hanover has hosted this tournament for many years and systems are in place to make this an easy task to ensure the tournament is run smoothly)
Baseball Umpire Coordinator - work with umpire service regarding game schedules, work with local teenagers to get umpire certification and scheduled for home/Hanover games.
All of these duties are already set up and created so someone just needs to maintain these going forward.
