Tryouts for the AA and A Mav's will start on April 6 at 4 o'clock at Lindborg-Cregg field. Prospective Mavericks are strongly encouraged to show up at the Warehouse to hone their skills with the Maverick coaches in preparation of Tryouts. To give yourself the best chance of becoming a Maverick come on out and get in baseball shape and tune up with the help of the Maverick Coaching Staff.

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS APPROVE LEASE! WAREHOUSE TO BECOME A REALITY!!

 

December 10 the Missoula County Commissioners approved a lease on two acres of county property for the Missoula Mavericks to build a 7500 square foot building to be used as a year around training facility. The facility will be primarily a hitting and throwing facility for the Mavericks but will also be available as scheduling allows for other baseball and softball related use for a yet to be determined fee.

Fundraising for the new "warehouse" is now in the planning stage but expect it to be in full gear early in 2009 as the plan is to have the warehouse available in the late fall of 2009. The warehouse will be a welcome relief to Maverick players, coaches, board members and parents as it will no longer be necessary to find a facility each off season to set up batting cages and pitching mound only to take it all down as the season nears. Anyone interested in helping raise funds please email the Mavericks as plans are being made right now and help and ideas would very much be appreciated!

Although there is not a building in place or a shovel of dirt moved the biggest hurdle of this project was cleared wednesday when the lease was granted to Maverick Baseball. There will be a Warehouse for current Mavericks and many future generations of aspiring Mavericks because of the tireless work of three individuals. We all owe a BIG THANK YOU to Missoula Maverick President Bill Miller, former President and current board member Matt Cuffe and Vice President Paul Sopko for their many hours of work turning this dream into a reality. Also a Thank You to Bill Dahlgren and the Big Sky Stewardship Committee and Lisa Moisey of the Missoula County Parks Department for their support!

Now Mavericks, and friends of Mavericks it is time to roll up your sleeves and get to work, we gotta raise some money and get this thing done. Don't wait to be called upon! Get your ideas together and check your resources! Anyone who can donate time or resources please let us know, you are going to want to be apart of this!

new street sign

 

 

Welcome to Maverick Lane!

 

 

The county approved it in July, the sign was made in August and on October 26 2008 with no ceremony and little fanfare Bill Miller and Paul Sopko and sons put up the sign that dedicates the entry way road in to Lindborg-Cregg field. It is officially now Maverick Lane. Rumors of a dedication Ceremony are swirling around town, look for a official opening and christening around opening day of the 2009 season!
