The Story Begins.....

Parent meeting over. The boys will not be going to opening ceremonies, it's mostly for the little boys so they (we all) get to sleep in which is nice. Tomorrow our first game will be at 12:30 we play Team Easton from Florida. I was kind of hoping we wouldn't play someone from here - they are used to the heat. We have 3 pool play games 1 on Sunday and 2 on Monday. Our Monday games times are 8am and 4pm. Starting on Tuesday we will be in our bracket playing, it's a double elimination tournament. Coach Brian is also going to start updating the blog as well, I look forward to that :). The families and players had a great BBQ tonight I meant to take my camera down and get some pictures...but I was hungry so I forgot it. Thanks Mike Goudreau for putting that together for us.

Go Bombers!!!

Yankess/Rays Game

The gang's all here! Everyone has arrived over the last day or so and now we are all trying to get used to the HEAT!


Last night most of us went to see the Yankees/Rays game in Tampa Bay. It was a great night, the Yankees lost which isn't so great and Alex Rodriguez still didn't hit his 600th home run :(. Below is a picture of Chris, Mykie and Aaron before the game started, don't worry it's not ALL about my son BUT this was the best picture taken all night. Once the game started it became harder to get pictures of everyone. You can see all of the pictures I took during the evening by clicking on the link on the right hand side.The boys woke up early this morning and headed out for a practice in the beautiful Orlando heat to get them prepared...they all made it back and seemed ok playing in the pool.

Opening day is tomorrow, we are having a parent meeting tonight and I will post game times and days that we know later on tonight.

Ok...Ok...Ok... Not the best day of baseball, but hopefully they got it out of their systems today. I took a few pictures the link is in the photo section. I always stop taking pictures when the game isn't going well...I think I'm superstitious. :) These boys have it in them, they are just going to have to dig down deep. Two days of practice and then Orlando here we come. My next update will be from there. Travel safe to the Bombers and their families.

Just a Thought

Welcome

Welcome family and friends to the NorCal Bombers blog!!! These boys have worked hard and are headed off to Florida to play in the USSSA Elite World Series. They will be playing at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando. This is going to be such a fantastic time for the boys, and my goal is to share it with you. The purpose of this blog is to keep all of you not going to Orlando up to date on the daily events of our boys. Please pass on the link of this blog to anyone that wants to know what's happening with the Bombers. Check back in often...I promise it will be worth it :)
