In a way to help give back to kids and players around the world, we are collecting any and all baseball equipment that anyone might have laying around and not using anymore. Such as old bats, gloves, balls, helmets, catcher equipment, batting gloves, basically anything you can spare that is in working order for other kids or adults to use. One of the Knights players has asked for some help in gathering gear to send home to some guys in the Dominican so that they can enjoy baseball just as we do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you have anything and can bring it to Tuesday's practice that would be awesome. If you can't make it Tuesday please contact us and we will arrange for a pickup.

Thanks!

The Knights will hold their first fall 2011 practice next Tuesday at 7PM at West Potomac High School. This will also serve as a tryout for new players going into the fall season. If anyone is interested please contact us and let us know your coming out. We are continuing to build a talented roster and are looking for highly skilled players at every position.

The fall season is just around the corner. A managers meeting will take place next Saturday and the Knights will look to begin playing ball immediately.

The Knights finished up their regular season with an 11-13-1 record. The first round of the playoffs matched the (5)Knights up against the (4)Cardinals. The Knights took the first two games to sweep the Cardinals and move on to the second round. In the second round the Knights faced a very tough (1)Sneaky Weasels team. The Weasels took the series from the Knights and went on to the championship series against the (2)Alexandria A's, to create a repeat of last years championship series. In the championship, the Weasels took down the defending A's to win the DC Wood 2011 AAA Championship.

A great season all around. Final stats and team leaders for the summer 2011 season will be announced shortly.

The Knights will look to continue to improve and bring in more talented players for the fall 2011. If you or anyone you know is interested in playing competitive wood bat baseball, please contact us.

Tonight is Country Music Knight. So tell your friends and bring your ladies for a good ol' fashioned Knight hoedown at the ballpark!

And if that alone doesn't dive you to bring the wood tonight, let me tell you about tonight's "Knight Ball." In the spirit of the holiday weekend, you'll be certain to draw all of the attention around the cooler. Bring top wood tonight and you'll be slugging back some ice cold brews wrapped in your very own Knights koozie!

Hold the rope, gentlemen!

The Knights got the ladies on their feet early as J McEvoy opened up the game with a lead off homer. L Adams followed with a two run shot before the top of the first ended. Baker kept the Navigators offense in check as the Knights continued to bring in runs. The Navigators pitching struggled and the game quickly got out of hand. Ladies Knight ended early as the Knights won 17-3 in a game called after 5.
