SYD Summer Program Kickoff! - https://t.co/sgCZzBDs0V

[Southside Youth Development @SYDChatt]

Huge thank you to the MLB-MLBPA YDF @Baseball_YDF for partnering with us to build a new batting cage at the Emma Wheeler Field!

The cage will serve our youth and community for years to come, as we equip and empower youth in Southside Chatt through baseball and mentorship!

Ty'Von had the biggest smile when he started playing baseball. After @SYDChatt received a PIFBS equipment donation, Ty'Von had a bat and glove to use during the season. By playing baseball, Ty'Von improved his skills and boosted his confidence. (1/2)

We appreciate the support, making it possible for our SYD kids to experience the magic of baseball!
