The Charlotte Knights Teach Local Kids The Basics Of Baseball

The heat and the sun didn’t stop kids in our area from learning the basics of baseball straight from those out on the diamond. The Charlotte Knights partnered with CPI Security and the YMCA of Greater Charlotte for the annual clinic. Dozens of the Charlotte Knights youngest prospects took to the diamond for the annual play ball clinic. The kids were bussed in from different YMCA’s across the greater Charlotte area, but they didn’t know where they were going then when they saw the actual stadium, their eyes started to light up.

“We started walking in and they already had that, uh, the sign saying welcome YMCA. Oh wow, they are really expecting us. The hype started getting and then when we saw the actual ball players, the actual professional ball players.”
