RHBL 2008 Feedback
Ryde Hornsby Baseball League are hoping for your assistance in guiding the future direction of RHBL.
The Falcons encourage all parents to take the couple of minutes to complete the survey online.
Don't waste this opportunity to have your say.
Safety on the Diamond
Parents, players and spectators are reminded to walk around the track to get to Diamond 4 not across the middle of the park which interrupts games on Diamonds 1 and 2. This has affected games on the last 2 weekends.
This is a safety and, consequently, insurance issue. It is considered so dangerous that umpires are instructed to halt games until the ground (the outfield) is clear again.
F2 Season Update Volume 2
Once again, Anonymous (the newly appointed official scribe of the F2's) has put "pen to paper" to deliver an update on the mighty F2's charge at the semi's. A big thank you to Martin Carey for passing it on.
