It is believed that this program accomplished the objectives that were set forth in the pro plan. Participants Reactions? The four year old program was an enjoyable experience for the participants as well as the parents . Some comments suggested that we shorten this session to forty five minutes . The five and six year old program was also successful, except one session some parents believed that our coaches were disorganized and overall ineffective. A few responses that were sent to the park and recreation office were very critical of the job that the recreation Program Supervisor was doing or not doing. On the other hand some people thought that this program went well and it is what they expected and anticipated from there young ballplayers and coaches . Changes (if any) for the next time this program is offered? It may be attempted to use all volunteer coaches in the future . This may elevate the harsh criticism from parents about staff. Additional training for these coaches may be required and needed. The basic philosophy of this program will remain intact. This program is intended to be an educational, fun and enjoyable experience . This program is where young ballplayers may go to learn about the game in a non competitive setting. It is anticipated in the future of this program to possibly look at the wide range of skill levels and how to make this program interesting for all of the participants .
