Memphis Area Youth Experience MLB All-Star Week

Memphis Redbirds RBI Program One of 12 Groups in San Diego
By
July 6, 2016

MEMPHIS, Tennessee - The Memphis Redbirds RBI Program (Reviving Baseball in the Inner Cities) was one of 12 cities and national youth leagues to participate in the All-Star Youth Classic in San Diego, California, alongside the 87th MLB All-Star Game.

Eleven kids and three coaches from the Memphis program played seven games against other youth programs from California, New York, Texas, Indiana, Mississippi, Rhode Island and Mexico in a round-robin tournament format.

In addition to the games, the participants toured the University of San Diego, participated in a community beach cleanup effort, enjoyed Major League Baseball's popular FanFest, attended the SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game and Celebrity Softball game, as well as the Gillette Home Run Derby.

The mission of the Memphis Redbirds RBI Program is to increase participation and interest in baseball and softball among under-served youth through instructional and competitive play, while encouraging youth to achieve academically, demonstrate good sportsmanship and contribute positively to the community.

To donate to the RBI Program, or find out how you can become involved, please contact the Redbirds at (901) 722-0230 or visit memphisredbirds.com/rbi.
