Hello everyone,
We'd like to get ahead of the curve with starting the process of Head Coach selection for the Summer Games team. The tournament will be hosted by Waterloo Region on the July 30th to August 2nd weekend.
The coaching recruitment drive will run until the end of January with the WCBA Executives reaching out to those interested the first week of February. Player online signup for tryouts would start March 1st (or earlier if Head Coach wishes) and we'd work with the selected Head Coach on tryout dates.
Coaches will be responsible for hosting tryouts at 3 or 4 locations across the WCBA to ensure all interested players can attend. This team will not be soley comprised of one center but will be a representation of the best players as selected by the Coaches at tryouts.
The WCBA does have a budget set aside that will help with a significant amount of the cost associated with players and coaches attending the tournament.
Those coaches who are interested should:
-
Compile a short baseball resume of their experience
-
Come up with a tryout plan / schedule rough idea
-
Be available to meet with the Executives via online meeting platform for discussion
NOTE: As per our Constitution, the WCBA will not approve out of province tournament requests for teams that would have eligible players for the Summer Games team.
Thanks everyone,
Rob
