JWB Posted May 24, 2011 Report Posted May 24, 2011 Will this Aug-Oct season clash with the boys playing Jr. High football too?
BC87 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Report Posted May 24, 2011 We play on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, so it will conflict with some of the games on Tuesday and Thursday. BCMS football practice is in the early morning, at least it was this year.
JWB Posted May 24, 2011 Report Posted May 24, 2011 Yea,I knew about the morning football practices,but I'm just worried about game times conflicting on Thursdays,I talked with some people that said last years fall ball season was over before the boys started playing any football games....O'well, we'll just have to make it work........ :-\
JWB Posted May 24, 2011 Report Posted May 24, 2011 FYI...I was able to get a 2011 7th & 8th football schedule from the athletic office today,and 9 of the 12 games will be on either Tues or Thurs and in that Aug-Oct time frame,so that is gonna make it very difficult for the boys that play Jr. High football to participate in fall ball also...just thought this info would be helpful for those who have a baseball/football player to deal with...lol
coachdaddy Posted May 26, 2011 Report Posted May 26, 2011 August 27th is a Saturday. October 14th is a friday. That is 49 days or 7 weeks. "Games will be Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday." 7 weeks at 3 games a week is 21 games. "Teams will play a 10-12 game schedule." I am confused? Also is there going to be any practices or just games?
BC87 Posted May 26, 2011 Author Report Posted May 26, 2011 We will have games on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. That does not mean that every team will play every night. You will have 1-2 games per week to make the 10-12 game schedule. This is all dependent on how many teams that we have.Last year, practices took place before the season started, then once the games started, there were not any practices.
coachdaddy Posted May 28, 2011 Report Posted May 28, 2011 Okay, sounds good. And you do NOT have to reside in BC correct?
Sammy Posted June 8, 2011 Report Posted June 8, 2011 I heard a rumor that Big Barrell bats can be used. Is that correct?
Long Ball Posted June 9, 2011 Report Posted June 9, 2011 Do you know of any kids from Lumberton area (Pee Wee Boys) coming to play? Curious for car pool possibilities.

Chester86 Posted June 11, 2011 Report Posted June 11, 2011 Do you have all of your coaching spots filled for Jr. Boys (13 - 15)?
JWB Posted June 11, 2011 Report Posted June 11, 2011 Can we use my coaches app from spring ball,that ya'll have????????

coachdaddy Posted July 13, 2011 Report Posted July 13, 2011 Is there different times for tryouts per age group?
BC87 Posted July 15, 2011 Author Report Posted July 15, 2011 Due to the weather, we will NOT have tryouts tomorrow at 9:00 and 11:00. We will have it next Saturday at the same times.
coachdaddy Posted July 15, 2011 Report Posted July 15, 2011 which time is for the 8 year olds, 9 or 11?

ndrlnd Posted July 21, 2011 Report Posted July 21, 2011 We missed registration. Can anyone give me a contact person with BCLL?
coachdaddy Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 when are the coaches gonna call and let us know something?
walldrill Posted August 12, 2011 Report Posted August 12, 2011 Is it too late to still get in at this point. Had a dad ask me if I knew of any places to play fallball and told him I knew BC was doing one. His kid is currently 11 but would play as a 12 next year during spring. They are from the LC area. Please PM me if you have an answer for me and maybe a contact
Chester86 Posted August 27, 2011 Report Posted August 27, 2011 Looking forward to tomorrow when we start the fall season. We have three games scheduled and the boys are really excited.
