Coaches: We are always looking for good coaches for our children. All head and assistant coaches are required to pass a mandatory background check and participate in a computer NYSCA training course. Our coaches are the backbone to all of the Club's programs and whose attitude and approach are appropriate for the level and goals of any particular sport.
Equipment: Due to the covid-19 virus we will closely be monitoring the use of equipment throughout our leagues. Parents will need to provide equipment for their child(some equipment may be for sale by OBGC). Equipment includes- batting helmet, bat, glove
