Junior Giants need summer coaches
The Junior Giants, youth baseball leagues supported by the San Francisco Giants Community Fund, need coaches for the upcoming summer season.
Coaches receive professional training by a team of San Francisco Giants coaches, and each coach will attend a clinic at Pac Bell Park and receives tickets to Giants games.
Junior Giants coaches teach positive character skills to the children before the start of each game or practice session. Through baseball, at-risk children learn to interact as a part of a team, and also learn to effectively deal with events that affect their lives and community.
Opening day is June 25. Call 1.877.JRGIANT.
