Game schedule

We now have a tentative schedule for the upcoming season. It's posted to the right under "schedule."

Also posted are the tournaments we are scheduled to play in (game times TBD), GBA Opening Day, Picture Day and a few practice dates/times which may need to be used to make up a game or two. FYI - Our home field is South Street Field - North, so this is where these practices or potential games will take place.

Please note that there is a potential for several games to be cancelled or change locations due to weather (mostly early in the season), just like last year. Our Managers do an excellent job of getting information to us as soon as they receive it, but sometimes it is very last minute. Might be a good idea to get into the habit of checking e-mails as well as our website frequently for up-to-date information when such a conditional day arises. I will try to have directions posted in advance as well.

Spirit Wear for Travel

Hey everyone!

Have a wonderful Super Bowl Day!! Speaking of Super stuff, take a look at what Robin has for us and give her an order if you're interested. I think it would be awesome if we we all had one of these and wore them to the games to show our boys some good ole' Geneva support. I'm going to get one for each of us in the family. Do you think I could get Zoe to wear one? Place your orders ASAP so Robin can get the order in. Keep in mind that all the proceeds go to benefit GBA. Thanks All! - Sue

Message from Robin:

I am currently taking orders for the 2008 GBA Travel t-shirt. For those of you who are not familiar with the shirt, it is white and has the GBA logo on the front and all the travel team rosters listed on the back. The shirt is $15.00 and it comes in Youth S,M,L,XL and Adult S,M,L,XL,XXL. These are nice shirts for players, parents, grandparents, etc.

If you are interested, please contact me at rrtdmunoz@sbcglobal.net stating how many shirts and the sizes. When I deliver the shirts, I will need to collect a check made payable to Geneva Baseball Association.

Thanks -
Robin Munoz
