Jen, Kyler’s Mum told Coach Paul Ludzki that Kyler was one happy boy Saturday night. The 22U Blues recruited him as bat-boy and showered him with kindness and generosty. Jen said that Kyler really felt like one of the team.
According to Coach Paul, it was bat-boy Kyler who helped them clinch the final game.
