Junior high club baseball team forming in Ada

The Ada baseball program is interested in expanding by forming a junior high club team for seventh and eighth graders, according to Jason Campbell, Ada High School head baseball coach.

"Club baseball is played during the school year against area seventh and eighth grade teams. This does not replace the Ada Pony League summer baseball program,' said Campbell.

"We intentionally do not overlap the schedules of these programs, so they can work together to provide the players the opportunity to play more games," he said.

A parent meeting is planned at 8 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 28, in the small gym, next to the varsity basketball gym, in the school administration building.
