----- Original Message ----- From: Jeff Geddes Subject: Corrected PRESS RELEASE2 from ONTARIO AMATEUR SOFTBALL ASSOCIATION PRESS RELEASE from ONTARIO AMATEUR SOFTBALL ASSOCIATION In 2003, the OASA revisited its softball delivery mandate and established a challenging vision for the future along with a proactive and comprehensive set of objectives. One of these proactive efforts to give structure to the game are annual skill clinics or expos as we now refer to them and information sessions for players of all ages, coaches, scorekeepers, officials and those generally interested in promoting softball within their individual communities. We are attempting to create a learning environment and to promote accessibility to the game for all those who wish to participate regardless of their knowledge base. Please consult the OASA website at http://www.oasa.ca/ for detailed information on both the Expos and any general questions you may have with respect to the Ontario Amateur Softball Association. We were extremely pleased to have Active 2010 funding to support our efforts in establishing these clinics. Each full day event will feature fastball related sessions including skills clinics for players 4 and up, coachs sessions, first aid sessions, sports injury, equipment suppliers, vendors etc. All sessions are from 9:00 - 5:00 with a cost per participant of $5.00. This year the clinics (Expos) will run for four (4) consecutive weeks at various locations within the province starting on the 18th of March at Canadian Martyrs Catholic School in Penetanguishene/Midland, followed on the 25th at the Stratford Northwestern Secondary School. On April 1st the expo moves to Dr. Norman Bethune Collegiate in Scarborough and the final clinic wraps up on April 8th at Centennial Secondary School in Belleville. Instructors for these clinics are some of the very best in Canada. Gil Read, Grant Patterson, Jamie Woodend, Pat Humphries, Blake Orr, Pete Landers, Alison Bradley and Sommer West Canadian Womens team will be in Scarborough, along with Evan Boyd, Pete Landers, Chuck Hendricks, Pat Humphries, Paul Koert and Ryan Freedman. Gil Read, is a Softball Canada Master Instructor. Gil has a vast amount of experience at multiple levels of the sport including assignment with the Canadian National Womens entry at the 2004 Summer Olympic Games in Athens, Greece. Blake Orr is a native of and played his minor ball in Sydenham Ontario just north of Kingston. Pat Humphries is a 25 year old catcher from Scarborough, ON has entered the Senior Mens arena in the past two years after finishing his junior career in Oshawa. Pete Landers played minor ball in Porcupine, Ontario before moving on to Oshawa where he played two years of junior ball. This legend of the game of fastball needs little introduction to his extensive list of accomplishments. Please take the time to check out our website and if you personally can not attend any of our clinics please pass on this information to some of your softball colleagues.
