Gillette Roughriders 2008 State Champions: Indoor Facility
Wednesday, September 9
RIDERS INDOOR FACILITY
Thanks to the relentless efforts of our community, board members, parents, and players, the Post 42 program just completed an indoor facility that measures 60x120 feet. The building was built in September of 2009. The facility which has yet to be named, will sit between the Riders clubhouse and the right field fence. Inside, the 7,200 square feet will be equipped with batting cages, mounds, free weights, and enough area for early season practices. Our players do a good job of working out year round, but this will provide them an opportunity like never before. It can only help our program and hopefully it will also be appealing to our younger players who will be Roughriders someday. This will be the first indoor facility at a field in the state.
