Players:

We are now finalizing our teams for travel 15 December to the "land down under".

This is a professional schedule, 9 inning games, wood bats, 13 games in 15 days against the best players in Australia. Our coaches have over 100 years of professional experience and we have a strength and conditioning coach traveling.

On request of a player we will report the player's evaluation to college coaches and pro scouts.

Our need is for one catcher and two pitchers, who will learn the game from Gary Wheelock, Seattle Mariners pitching coach and Carl Nichols, former Major League catcher.

Bob,

Is this a 15 year old team? I wasn't sure if the 15 you put meant 15 year olds, or you were referring to December 15th! I have a 6'3" 208lb. 16 year old son who is a pitcher throwing in the upper 80's, with 2 plus off-speed pitches and also catches. He attended an Area Code tryout this summer at Baylor. I understand you started the Area Code games or was one of the founders. Anyway...what is the age cutoff? His birthdate is 3/14/90.

By the way, tell Carl "Jeff Lackie" said "hello". We played together in the minor leagues on a couple different teams with the Orioles before he went to the Astros.

PM me if you have his personal info, I'd love to talk to him.

Thank you for your time.

Jeff;
yes I will see Carl on the 14 October. He coached our American Team against Japan at USC Sept 2-4. Yes, I created the Area Code games in 1987-2004. thank you.

Carl will coach our 16 and under team in Australia. We depart Dec 15 and return Jan 3.
This American team travels to Perth and Sydney. You may remember Greg Jelks. He is the Western Australia State Team Head Coach.

Please have your son complete a player profile on our web site <www.goodwillseries.org>
