Parents/Guardians,

 

The FHS Baseball Program is offering two winter youth camps this school year.

February 24, 2024: Pitchers/Catchers Camp

  • Ages 9-16 from 11:00am-1:00pm

March 2nd, 2024: Skills Camp

  • Ages 5-8 from 9:30am-12:00pm
  •  Ages 9-15 from 12:30-3:00pm

Each camper should bring their own glove, batting glove(s), hat and any other equipment they feel necessary to compete. Our winter baseball camps will be held in the FHS gymnasiums. Please enter through the FHS glass doors. We will organize everything in the hallway before entering the gymnasium.

Walk Ins are welcome but for our planning purposes, please register online at https://findlaytrojans.com/sports/2021/6/29/tickets.aspx 

Our Summer Camp information will be out in the Spring.

If you have any questions, please contact Coach Nell at jnell@findlaycityschools.org

 

Parents/Guardians,

7th and 8th graders at Findlay City Schools and in the Findlay City School District can attend any and all FHS Baseball Open Gyms/Open Fields/Open Weight Rooms until February 19, 2024. We want to make sure we emphasize that this is when students have SAFE transportation and they can bring any/all baseball equipment they have. We would like them to wear Findlay gear as much as possible. I will attach the FHS Baseball Calendar below. January and February calendars will be added to this link in the next couple of weeks once schedules are finalized. Any questions regarding this can be emailed to Coach Nell at jnell@findlaycityschools.org

Mark your Calendar for this event at Findlay High School

  • Junior Trojans Day is March 30th during the FHS Baseball games. Let's get all future Trojans out to Woody Curlis Field this day! First pitch is at 11am. We have a tri scheduled. Would like to have them out at their favorite positions for the national anthem, give them a little food, run the bases, and have them watch baseball all day. Varsity and JVA are both schedule at home. We play at 11am and 4pm (both varsity and JVA). We would definitely like them at the 11am (about 30 minutes early) game for the PA announcements and national anthem.
  • We encourage all FYB players to watch our practices/games in the spring. These are open for them to come out, learn, and we will be looking for some bat boys.
  • Summer Skills Camp is TBA (Early to Mid-June)

 

Sincerely,

Lindsay’s Law: Sudden Cardiac Arrest in Youth Athletes

 

What is Sudden Cardiac Arrest?

A Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) occurs when the heart suddenly and unexpectedly stops beating, cutting off blood flow to the brain and other vital organs.  Sudden cardiac arrest is fatal if not treated immediately, most often by a defibrillator.

Who is Lindsay?

Senate Bill 252 is named for national heart health advocate and former Miss Ohio Lindsay Davis who suffers from a heart condition and has since dedicated her career to raising awareness of this potentially fatal condition.

"Sudden cardiac arrest is the number one killer of student athletes," said Davis. "At any moment I could have died because coaches and teachers had no idea this was even a possibility for someone who looked as healthy as I did at that age."

Lindsay’s Law

Lindsay’s Law, Ohio Revised Code 3313.53103707.58 and 3707.59 went into effect in 2017.

In accordance with this law, the Ohio Department of Health, the Ohio Department of Education, the Ohio High School Athletic Association, the Ohio Chapter of the American College of Cardiology and other stakeholders jointly developed guidelines and other relevant materials to inform and educate students and youth athletes participating in or desiring to participate in an athletic activity, their parents, and their coaches about the nature and warning signs of sudden cardiac arrest.

The following resources were developed to implement Lindsay’s Law:
