Pulling on a baseball glove and throwing 70 mile - per -hour fastballs may be the furthest thing from most people's minds but not those who are par- ticipating in Mike Lumley's baseball clinic. Being conducted at the Huron Park Recreation Centre until March 14, the clinic emphasizes pitch- ing but there is also a lot of other areas to work on like infielding and hitting off a tee. "In the winter I do all pitching but there is only so many drills you can teach them. You don't want them bored so you give them some fun stuff to do," said Lumley. A member of the London AA Tigers, a pitcher who made it all the way to the Detroit Tigers 40 - man roster and a graduate of the Eastern Michigan Cameron Becker gets ready to swing during the Mike Lunley clinic held in Huron Park. University baseball program, Lumley doesn't be- lieve in teaching young pitchers how to throw "junk". He says that young pitchers, those between the ages of 9 and 12 should learn how to throw strikes and work on their speed a little bit long before learning how to throw the breaking ball. "I work on their mechanics, their arm strength. The velocity will come. I don't teach them any junk at that age, I don't believe in it. I've seen too many kids throwing breaking balls at 9,10,1 1,and 12 years old and by the time they're 13,14, or15, their arms are blown out." Lumley said he saw a successful major bantam (14 year-old) team last year that never threw break- ing balls at all. Baseball in Canada: Hockey is Canada's best sport and while we continue to send more players into the profmional baseball ranks, a lot has to change before more hall players get the chance to chase their dream. "It's getting much bigger," said Lumley of the in- terest in ball in this country. I don't think it will be as big as hockey." There are several key ingredients which are miss- ing. "We don't have the coaching ability, we don't have the facilities. We don't have scholarships at the university level and we don't have high school ball." Registration corning up: The Exeter Minor Baseball Association is getting ready for the 1995 season and it appears as though registration costs will have to be increased. Gary Hartman indicates that due to a debt of about $2,700 the cost of registration will go up slightly. However, the EMBA has many fund- raising ideas on the go but are looking for vol- unteers to help get those going. Registration dates are set for Saturday, March 11 at the South Huron Recreation Centre from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and again on Wednesday, March 15 from 7-10p.m. Costs are as followed: tykes, $40; rookie, $60; mosquito, $70; bantam, $80; midget, $90 and juve- nile -junior which is not part of the EMBA, $95. While there are increases, Hartman says they fall in line with other communities. The EMBA is looking for volunteers and ex- ecutive members. Anyone wishing to help out are welcome to attend a meeting at the Riverview Es- tates Recreation Centre on Sunday at 2 p.rn. Baseballs future: The Ontario Baseball Associa- tion it seems, is going through some dramatic changes. At the 1994 annual convention, the OBA was giv- en permission to change its name to Baseball On- tario and now there is a drive to look to the future with what is being called Baseball 2000. Back in November, over 200 participants sat down and looked at the future by addressing the seven main areas which arc coaching, umpiring, communications, sport development, organizational development, human resources, facilities and equip- ment. The next step is to set up sub -committees for these groups and have co-chairs. "This is a great start for all of us and there are a lot of people who have made this a success. I look forward to the results during the next ycar," said president Bernie Soulliere through the newsletter. 41 I Dorchester 4 at Lucan 1 Goal: Matt Rushton Assist: Dave Fleming Series tied at 4 pts.
