On Saturday March 29th, Bristol County District Attorney Sam Sutter’s office will conduct a free baseball clinic for Fall River youth. The clinic marks the 65th free youth sports clinic offered by District Attorney Sutter since the program’s launch in 2007. More than 4,500 total youth have been served.
Saturday’s free baseball clinic is a collaboration between the District Attorney’s Office, the BMC Durfee High School Baseball Team, the Boys and Girls Club of Fall River, and Greater Fall River Re-Creation. Brad Bustin, Head Coach at Durfee, will facilitate the clinic, assisted by players of the school’s baseball teams. In addition, members of the District Attorney’s office will serve as mentors to youth in attendance.
The program itself is managed by former Boston Red Sox pitcher and Dartmouth native, Brian Rose. In addition to managing his own baseball company, Rose works for the District Attorney’s Office in its Community Affairs Division acting as Volunteer Coordinator, Free Youth Sports Clinic Director, and Neighborhood Liaison.
Saturday’s one-day clinic will take place from 9:00am – 11:00am at Durfee High School, located at 360 Elsbree Street in Fall River. Participation is open to both boys and girls in grades 2-8.
