Team Party

Yesterday afternoon we had Andrew's team party. The family of one of his teammates Greg Mundy, was nice enough to offer their home for the party, which was pot luck. They've got a pool and a big back yard so we BBQ'd and swam.

Thank goodness for the pool it was a real scourcher yesterday, hitting the high 90's. Today is projected to be over 100, tomorrow too and then it should hopefully start to cool off a bit.

Anyway the party was lots of fun and the food delicious. John Coulsell, the team's manager had written each boys stats on a brand new ball which he presented to each of them along with various awards. Andrew won the leagues triple crown.

His last game at VCAA is next Saturday when he'll play in the All-Star game which is part of closing day. Andrew has had a great experience playing at VCAA these past few years and I'm really going to miss watching him play there. It's a well organized league with a great bunch of families that always put the kids first.

Andrew is too old this year to play on a summer tournament team but he's going to go work the snack shack during the summer tournaments and he hopes to continue to umpire there for them next year if his schedule permits. There's a 16 to 18 year old league up in Chatsworth that contacted him and they want him to come play for them in the fall and we've heard nothing but good things about that league so he'll likely give that a try.
