Upper Arlington Baseball Boosters Club

The uabbci supports the Baseball program at Upper Arlington high school through fund raising. They provide needed uniforms, equipment, field work and supporting team events. The uabbci has approximately 60 members in 2021. The uabbci supported the varsity, junior varsity and freshman teams with a total of 60 players, supported by 10 coaches. While there were still limitations on the season due to covid19 (local camp instead of a spring break trip), there were still approximately 100 games played by the varsity, jv and freshman teams. The main uabbci fundraising event in support of Baseball operations for the ua Baseball program is the submarine sandwich sale held in january. The players sold and delivered approximately 11,200 sandwiches of which eighteen hundred were donated to local food shelters. The responsibility for making the sandwiches was contracted out this year due to covid19 safety concerns. Other fundraising activities included a fall golf outing for players and families (with restrictions), and the sale of advertisements in the annual Baseball program. The hall of fame event recognizing past players had to be cancelled due to covid19 concerns. An additional fundraising campaign was conducted in 2021 to raise money for the construction of upgraded Baseball and softball facilities on the site of the new high school campus. The Baseball and softball programs agreed to contribute approximately 50% of the total construction costs to install partial artificial playing surfaces, with the ua board of education (boe) covering the remaining. The organizations jointly raised and distributed 100,000 by august 31, 2021 as required by the boe, with the hope of construction being completed by the start of the 2022 seasons. The Baseball Boosters Club contributed 60% (60,000) of the total required funds to the Upper Arlington board of education
