Weyburn
Beavers and Parrish & Heimbecker
team up to deliver the “Giving
Back to Schools” program
The boys of summer will soon be
back in Weyburn eager to play ball. This year, the Weyburn
Beavers of the WMBL are excited to announce that Parrish &
Heimbecker will be the official sponsor of our in-school “Giving
Back” program for the K-9 schools in Weyburn. The purpose
and the goal of the program is to share knowledge about the
game and the skills of baseball with the students. The program
also provides an opportunity to share the players’ cultural
experiences and to build a positive, successful relationship
within the community.
The Beavers, through
their sponsorship with Parrish & Heimbecker, are also
thrilled to host two school nights to celebrate the schools,
the students, and the players’ who participate in the
program. The first school night is on Tuesday, June 24th,
and the second on Thursday, June 26th. In each of the two
nights, we are planning to give away two tablets –
one tablet for a student and the other tablet for the school
that the winning student attends. So, as the season nears,
the Beavers will be gearing up to build on last season’s
successes and continue building on “Giving Back to
Schools.”

Beavers
Sign Assistant Coach
The Weyburn Beavers ball
club is pleased to announce that, after turning in a
stellar 2013 with the Beavers and leading the team in
BA (.329) RBI (38) HR (7), Chris Manning will be returning
as an Assistant Coach for the 2014 season.
As a player Chris brought passion, dedication, and knowledge
of the game each and every day; these qualities will
certainly be an asset as a coach. Chris is currently
finishing his degree at Doane College as well as helping
Coach their junior varsity team. |
With
Phil Curtis returning for his second season as Head
Coach and primarily looking after the pitching staff,
we needed a person that could work the position players
and complement Coach Curtis. With two former Beaver
players Curtis and Manning leading the team as Coaches,
our organization is extremely excited about the 2014
season. With the player roster getting close to being
filled, our team is certainly looking to make a statement
around the league that the Beavers are now in a position
to compete each and every game against all the teams
in the league.
The Beavers first game and home opener is on May 30.
Season tickets and mini packs are now available from
Beaver executive; I urge fans to get their tickets and
come out for what should be a great summer of WMBL baseball
in Weyburn.
