MUCH NEEDED HELP: Trinity Christian is looking for an Assistant Baseball Coach this upcoming season.  Please consider this great opportunity to work with our Head Coach, Logan Cleveringa, and the young men in our baseball program.  Yes, baseball is a busy season but it is also fairly short.  From first practice to potential last game is only 8.5 weeks!!  Pitching/Hitting sessions are going on now, but these are led by Coach Cleveringa and are not a requirement of an assistant.  Here is the season timeframe required for this position.

• Monday, May 1 = 1^st official team practice (practices are generally held right after school until school is out and then baseball generally practices later in the day.
• Tuesday, May 16 = 1^st game (schedule looks like mostly 2-3 game weeks)
• Thursday, June 29 = 1^st District Tournament game

If you have any interest or have any questions regarding the requirements for the position, please contact me at ad@trinitychs.org or 712-541-2368.
