The Apex Rotary Club is happy to anounce that it will be running a 2012 Fall Coach Pitch baseball league for the Apex community. Coach pitch is for boys and girls ages seven and eight. To be eligible to play, a child must be seven (7) years old by August 11, 2012 and cannot turn nine (9) years old before October 13, 2012.

The purpose of the baseball leagues is to teach baseball fundamentals, promote good sportsmanship and show the value of teamwork. Official scores and win/loss records are not maintained.Practices will start the week of July 16th and will be held during the week at Lufkin Middle School. Children will have at least 4 practices prior to the first game. A child's coach will pick the day of the week for practice. Games will be played at Apex Elementary school on Saturdays starting August 11, 2012 and ending October 13, 2012. We will not have games the weekend of Labor Day.

Cost for the league is $80.00 and includes a team shirt and hat for each child. To register, a registration form for each child must be completed. Registration is based on a first come first serve basis! All registration forms must be postmarked by June 30, 2012. Parents will be notified by the coach of their team assignment the week of July 9, 2012. CLICK HERE for a copy of the registration form & general information form for parents.
