This year, as an assistant coach of a Pee- Wee basebal iani, 1 have noîiced the lack of parental support ai regular seasori gaines. Throughout the season, few parents have attended the basebaîl gaines 10 give their moral and/or vocal sup- port. 1 realize that nîarîy parents go out1 of thlir way to gel their boy ready for the gaines but sureiy if a parent goes to that nîuich trouble, they niit as wcell attend the gaine. The playoffs bcgin îlîis week for rnaîîy of the nîinor basebaîl teanîs VieeIn Whitby. Ail the teains ini the îown have played a fairly lengthy regular scason and now iha t vie arc ini the playotis, al the coaches and players hope thai thcir team cari pcakat the righ t momenrt atid go righit 10 the fitnals. Perhaps wuîh parental nioral support. the kids anîd the coachies couid play better and this îvould inake the garnes even nmore intercstîîg. Wc aren't askîng for parents to corne and to shout ai thecir kid al througlî the ganle, as the coachlvil do enough shioot- inig. 1 realize that niany parents can't attend the gaines buit surely a nighit out to watch a son play basebail on a basebali teani would strengtiien the famiily teami. 1 an flot prornising pro- fessional bail gamles but 1 do assure ail parents thai the gaines are inhteresting and your moral support would be ap- prcciated at the park. You can sec the sanie boys play basebali on the al-star teamis year in and year out but you can'i sec your son play on thie sanie teami every year if hie is only anl average player. Please think about this next time you atch your son head out to the park ili [lits bail glove. ail by hinîself. I hope that parentîs that rcad th is realize tiai Ilni writirîg on bolialf of your son.
