THE Wangaratta Rangers are excited for the start of their T-Ball program for children aged five to eight years old years old, which commences next Thursday, October 10.

According to program coordinator, Sean Warfe, there has been great interest in the program already, but there are still places available to join in the program.

“Our main focus is on fun, and friendships, as well as introducing them to great games of baseball and softball,” he said.

“We hope to get as many kids involved that we can.”

The program is set to run weekly on Thursdays for seven weeks from 4.30pm.

At a cost of $70, participants will receive seven weeks of coaching and fun, and also a team shirt and a glove to keep.

The club wants to also thank local sponsors who have provided support to this new program.
