I encourage all of our coaches and wives to attend both the Hall of Fame/Coach of the Year Banquet A banquet is a large public meal or feast, complete with main courses and desserts. It usually serves a purpose, such as a charitable gathering, a ceremony, or a celebration. Sometimes a banquet consists of only desserts, but it is advisable to include main courses as well. and the Honors Luncheon. Last year we set all kinds of records for our annual convention. Records are made to be broken, and I hope to see even more coaches and their wives in Chicago. Hopefully, this will mark the beginning of a great baseball season for you, your team, and your new friends, and the broadening of your knowledge of the game. Come visit with your old and new friends and keep the game of baseball moving forward. See you in the "Windy City." Irish O'Reilly President, ABCA Head Baseball Coach, Lewis University (IL) |
