Coaches Needed for Junior GiantsGiving to our youth and our community is a positive way to improve the lives of others. Volunteering as a coach in the City of Tracy’s Junior Giants program provides you with an opportunity to have a positive impact on the youth of our community. The Junior Giants program is a free, non-competitive baseball

league that offers participants with an excellent opportunity to learn the basics of the game in a relaxed and fun atmosphere. This free program is for local children ages 4 through 13. No coaching experience is necessary as the Junior Giants offer coaching clinics and training DVDs to assist new or inexperienced volunteers on proper methods to teach the skills of the game. The program runs from late June through the second week of August. Come by our office to sign up to become a volunteer coach. For more information on coaching, call (209) 831-6200. Coaches packets will be available beginning March 2, 2015. NOTE: ALL coaches will need to register online at www.jrgiants.org and process a background check online. Must complete volunteer application and process fingerprints at Tracy Police Department.
