Avalon Youth Basketball is continuing to go strong.  The players are beginning to gel as a team.  They are listening and learning from their coaches.  Coach Z has really ensured the success of the program his tireless hours are really making a difference.  The battles on the court have been exciting to watch as each player is getting better at their skills.  There are three games left in the season.

T-Ball, Sluggers and Squirts baseball season is upon us.  There will be a mandatory parent meeting and registration day on Tues. May 26th, at 5:30 at Joe Machado Ball Field.  These leagues are open for children age 4 to 5th grade.  We are in need of coaches and team parents please let us know how will be participating.  You can stop into the Recreation Dept. to get a registration form.
