The objective of this training camp is to help the participants improve as softball players in preparation for the start of the season

For the upcoming season the Ghajnsielem Redcoats plan to organise their softball and baseball practice sessions so that the girls enrolled with the Club would be able to practice and play softball all season long, whereas the boys would be able to practice and play baseball during the entire season. There are also plans to hold softball training camps on a regular basis in Gozo as well as in Malta to work on the fundamental softball skills.

In order to prepare for the start of the 2015/16 season the Redcoats invited two coaches, Shannon Galea (Canadian) & Emily Weimken (American) to conduct a two-day softball pre-season training camp. There will be three 2-hour sessions. These will be held at the Sannat Football Ground on Thursday, September 10 and on Friday, September 11.

These free sessions are also open for those who never played softball before and would like to try the sport. Former Redcoats are also welcome to join. The objective of this training camp is to help the participants improve as softball players in preparation for the start of the season.

This training camp will also be part of the European Week of Sports #BEACTIVE 7-13 September 2015. The European Week of Sport aims to promote sport and physical activity across Europe. The Week is for everyone, regardless of age, background or fitness level. With a focus on grassroots initiatives, it will inspire Europeans to #BeActive on a regular basis and create opportunities in peoples’ everyday lives to exercise more.

#BeActive is a call to action to get Europeans moving!
