Christmas break brings a welcoming and much needed break to all students. However, for most athletes, break doesn’t mean “time off.” Over the break many teams participated in outreaches, practice, and games. Take a look and see what they did…
The baseball team volunteered and participated in a 2-day camp for baseball players 5-15 years of age. The camp offered hitting, pitching, and fielding drills for all rising players, as they were able to improve their skills and stay active during Christmas time. Some older Varsity players helped the participants; as they organized pick up games, drills, and a home run derby. A second grade student that took place in the camp exclaimed, “It was a fun to stay away from home and play baseball all day with my friends.”
Not only did athletes take part in camps and outreaches, but also they were also involved within their teams. The players woke up early for practice and played in many games and tournaments. Every team played, from girls and boys soccer, to girls and boys basketball. The Varsity Boys Basketball team played in a three-day tournament, from December 21 – 23, at Palmer Trinity.
All in all, CCA athletes enjoyed their Christmas break doing what they enjoy the most. Play ball!
