The Boys & Girls Club of Laguna Beach is teaming up with the Angels Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities (RBI) to provide kids in Orange County the opportunity to play softball and baseball. Angels RBI is a Major League Baseball youth outreach program designed to: increase baseball and softball participation among underserved youth; encourage academic participation and achievement; promote greater inclusion of minorities into the mainstream of the game; teach the value of teamwork.
The program is designed for kids who are in the 4th/5th grade to join the Club’s co-ed team. Sign-ups are on a first come basis, and only 16 spots are available for the RBI team for the Club. No experience is required for kids who would like to participate. Practices will start in the end of February and the season will follow from March through June. Some baseball gear will be provided by Angels Baseball.
There will also be opportunities to attend trainings skills for kids who would like to learn the fundamentals of what it takes to be a skillful team player in softball and baseball, hosted at the Angels Stadium.
