Batters Box Spring Training Practice

Spring Training is a brand new opportunity for all Great Plains United Methodists who work with youth – youth leaders, Sunday School teachers, pastors, Confirmation mentors, etc. – to be treated like an MVP and learn from a great coach and add to their playbook.

For our inaugural training we had 65 people from 25 congregations come to one of two locations. Friday, April 17 – Saturday, April 18, we were at Trinity UMC in Salina, Kansas. Saturday, April 18 – Sunday, April 19, we were at First UMC in Kearney, Nebraska. Both events started at 6:30 p.m. on the first day and ended at 3 p.m. on the second day.

Each team received a bundle of “major league” resources for use in your ministry.

Spending the day at Disney's World of Sports Complex where the Atlanta Braves position players report for Spring Training. Everything starts with stretching calisthenics. You never want to get hurt. But, that's especially true here when guys are trying to get a job. I even heard the trainer have a small meeting to tell players to hold on to the stretch-out straps because they will take an eye out. "That's all I got," he said. And the training began.

Atlanta Braves potentially had the best outfield in baseball Jason Heyward, and the newly acquired brothers B.J. and Justin Upton. What are the chances of two brothers playing together on the same MLB team. Only 20 pairs of brothers have ever done so. Sibling rivalry was alive and well. They had some sort of internal game going on. While they played catch B.J. was disputing a point that Justin was scoring. Funny guys.

Spring Training hosted by Joker Marchant Stadium yearly.
