The illoz Orioles

posted:October 20, 2009

Meet the team that illoz sponsored this fall season! The Orioles are an 8, 9 and 10 year old team (2A) that took the field in our local WNC Fall Baseball league in Asheville, NC.

I'm a bit of a softy for dirty kids running bases and having fun in the sun. There's something about the light, the grass and yes the dirt that just speaks to me. All you have to do is add kids and, well, there you are.

Who doesn't want to be these kids? I mean, seriously folks.

Coaches Jamie and Jim were everything you'd want, especially if you're a kid. These two delivered 100% fun for everyone. I was lucky to find them, but the players were luckier to have them.

Is there anything at all better than being on a team of friends? I doubt it.

Is there anything better than the dugout? I seriously don't think so.

It's your moment kid. All alone at the plate. Magic can happen.

Not that it matters to me, but the illoz Orioles finished second out of thirteen teams this season. Well done, you crazy kids!

Our illoz team from last year is here.

Be back next seaon! Thanks to everyone at illoz.com for helping to make this happen for these kids. They had an amazing time in the sun, thanks to you and their coaches.
