Ripken Baseball plans convention for coaches in Ill.

July 20, 2003

Ripken Baseball and Great American Sports Management will hold a youth baseball coaches' convention Feb. 6-8 in Tinley Park, Ill.

The Great American Baseball Show will feature more than 150 baseball exhibitors as well as a series of coaches' clinics with Cal Ripken Jr., Bill Ripken and other members of the Ripken Baseball staff.

"It is a great opportunity for us to take our brand of instruction into a baseball hotbed such as the Chicago area," Cal Ripken said. "We have been targeting coaches and coaches' education as an efficient way to influence as many youth baseball players as possible."
