The TJ Robinson Life Center, Blackridge Road, Hope Mills, NC, will host a batting cage dedication on Thursday, November 17 at 5:00 pm, in conjunction with the Fayetteville Woodpeckers’ donation of baseball equipment.
Sport goes beyond basic recreation for large numbers of young people in towns and local schools. In local schools and youth sports facilities near them, more than 60 million children and adolescents between the ages of 6 and 18 participate in organized sports each year.
At least 61% of adults who played sports frequently as children also report higher rates of life success, better communication skills, lower rates of drug and alcohol abuse, higher living standards, and more active interactions with their families, partners, communities and social networks.
The Fayetteville Woodpeckers donated baseball equipment through the TJ Robinson Life Center to encourage young people to play baseball and other sports. Youth will have free access to baseball equipment and other opportunities to learn about the sport through the donation.
Youth of all ages, colors, religions, and socioeconomic backgrounds have equal access to opportunity at the TJ Robinson Life Center, a multi-sport and community gym in Hope Mills, North Carolina.
Batting cages and other baseball equipment, such as bats, gloves, helmets and pitchers, are now available to children in Fayetteville schools and neighborhoods.
To enable them to study, grow, and thrive in a stable environment, the grant is intended to encourage young people to learn about baseball and pursue the sport without the financial barriers that might otherwise have prevented them from doing so.
