Rylan is doing the Minors I (for 3 year olds) class on Tuesdays at 4 pm. The class is at the Indoor Arena at Crockett Park. Carter has speech until 3 pm on those days so we get to kill an hour every week between the two things (this week we went to the playground).
Rylan was super excited to do "Carter's baseball" as he was calling it (Carter took a class in the spring). I think Rylan was most excited to get a shirt! He's on the green team.
Like the class Carter took, the kids don't play a game. They just do lots of fun drills to learn to play baseball. On Tuesday there were 5 kids in Rylan's class (6 is the max). Only one had some trouble staying focused and doing what he was supposed to.
Rylan is on the right in this picture where the boys were practicing throwing. The coach was trying to get Rylan to throw right handed so I ran out there real quick to tell him Rylan is left handed (but tends to bat better right handed). After that, Rylan was throwing much better :)
Rylan (like Carter) is so stinking competitive. He tried so hard to be the first one to each base as the kids were running the bases.
Here's a video of Rylan hitting the ball off the tee. The coach was emphasizing keeping your eye on the ball - Rylan was staring it down!!!
Rylan seemed to really enjoy the class. He did great listening to the coach but there are two other classes going on at the same time so he'd occasionally watch them when it wasn't his turn to do something. The coach seems great so far too. I'm still impressed by the program!
