Clover Stadium to again Host Heroes Classic

September 6, 2022

Here is a link to the original story on the team's website.

Rockland County, NY – For the third successive year, Clover Stadium in Pomona, the home of the Frontier League’s New York Boulders, will play host to the annual Heroes Baseball Classic between the New York Police Department and New York Fire Department.

This year’s game, sponsored in part by the Duke of Oil and Tune of New City, will be played on Saturday, Sept. 10, with first pitch scheduled for 6:30 p.m.

The game between the NYPD and FDNY is held each year in memory of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice after responding to the World Trade Center area on Sept. 11, 2001. On that day, the FDNY baseball team lost two members – Andre Fletcher and Mike Weinberg.

Proceeds from the game will go to the Widows and Children’s Fund, as well as the Stephen Siller Foundation.

Baseball Camps Set at Clover Stadium

July 1, 2022

Here is a link to the original story on the team's website.

Rockland County, NY – Help your future professional baseball player take the next step in their development with a week at the Nike/New York Boulders camp at Clover Stadium in Pomona this summer.

Open to budding players ages 7-15, the campers will get instructed in the finer points of the game by US Sports Camps counselors on the field where the New York Boulders play their Frontier League games.

New York Boulders’ players and coaches are scheduled to make guest appearances at each camp session as the participants “learn from the pros on the field where the pros play.”

Campers will learn the fundamentals of hitting, fielding, running the bases and team play – all while having a memorable experience on the Clover Stadium playing field.

Four sessions of the US Sports Camps/Nike/New York Boulders camp are available – July 11-14, July 18-21, Aug. 1-4 and Aug. 15-18; and each session, which will run daily from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., costs $325. There is a discount available for groups attending a session. For further information on a group discount, please call the US Camps Office at 1-800-645-3226.

The camp has a low staff to camper ratio and players are instructed based on their skill level. Players should bring their own glove, cleats, bat, batting glove, batting helmet and wear baseball attire.

In case of inclement weather, the camp will be moved to Clover Stadium’s indoor facilities.

For attending the camp, each camper will get a T-shirt, gym sack, player card and lanyard.

Lunch is not provided for the campers, so be sure to pack one and bring it along to your session

GRAND SLAM Home Run Readers Amass Nearly 3 Million Minutes

June 21, 2022

Here is a link to the original story on the team's website.

Reading Program Reaches Record Heights

Rockland County, NY (June 20, 2022) – With nearly 3 million minutes of reading in the books for this season, the New York Boulders’ “Home Run Readers” program continues to build its successful reputation – one book at a time.

In conjunction with NY529, the partnership with the Boulders has helped promote literacy in elementary and middle schools throughout the Lower Hudson Valley, the Bronx and Northern New Jersey. First started in 2013, this year’s program saw a record 38 schools participate with more than 3,500 students opening the books.

The challenge ran from April 25 and ended on May 15.

The rules were simple: only out of school reading counted.

Each school designated a coordinator to record each student’s reading times, as well as a total for their school.

When all was said and done, each reader fell into one of five prize categories:

  • Under 400 minutes earned you a single and a participation certificate
  • At least 400 minutes had you on second base with a double, a participation certificate and two tickets to a specified Boulders’ game this season.
  • Up to 800 minutes and you legged out a triple to go along with a participation certificate and four tickets to a specified 2022 Boulders’ game
  • 1300 minutes or more had you circling the bases with a home run, a participation certificate, four tickets to a specified game where you also had the privilege of throwing out the ceremonial first pitch.

The top reader for the year, Yankilvio Molina of the Highland Falls Intermediate School in Highland Falls, NY, will be rewarded with on-field recognition at a Boulders’ game, as well as an autographed baseball and a photo taken with manager T.J. Stanton and Boulder Bird.

Teachers who had their classes participate, along with their designated program coordinator and school principal were awarded five tickets to a future Boulders’ game, as well as a 10% discount at the team store located inside Clover Stadium.

This year’s top five reading schools were:

  1. Little Tor Elementary School in New City, NY
  2. Highland Falls Intermediate School in Highland Falls, NY
  3. Edgemont Elementary School in Montclair, NJ
  4. Greenwood Lake Middle School in Monroe, NY
  5. A. MacArthur Barr Middle School in Nanuet, NY

Each of the top five schools were awarded a suite to a 2022 Boulders’ home game for 14 staff members.

Information regarding season tickets and packages for the Boulders’ 2022 season are available by calling 845-364-0009 or sliding to www.NYBoulders.com.

Boulders to Award Six Scholarships to High School Grads

June 21, 2022

Here is a link to the original story on the team's website.

Rockland County, NY (June 20, 2022) – Are you heading to college this coming Fall and are leaning towards a career in Sports Management or Business? If you are, you should be applying for the NY529/New York Boulders University scholarship.

Sports Management is one of the fastest growing college majors in the country and Business is an essential component of the industry. A career in sports is also much more than playing or watching a game, there are a number of fields where people work behind the scenes such as facilities operations, public relations and marketing, corporate sponsorships, community relations, event presentation, in-game entertainment, sports medicine, graphics, control room operations, etc.

This summer, the Boulders will be donating six scholarships worth $529 apiece into a student’s NY529 account. The scholarships are open to graduating high school seniors who are seeking to pursue such careers.

To be eligible, a student must fill out and submit the scholarship application on the Boulders’ website at www.nyboulders.com. Applications need to be received by July 15, with the winners announced the week of July 25.

The winners will be honored with on-field recognition at a Boulders’ game the week of Aug. 1.

Submitted applications must include the student’s name, e-mail address, phone number, name of high school, projected college or university planning to attend beginning this fall and his/her projected major area of study.

Three questions need to be answered:

  1. What are you planning to study and why are you interested?
  2. What traits or skills do you possess that will transfer to a career in the sports or business industries?
  3. What experience have you had (aside from playing if you plan a career in sports) that you feel have prepared you for a future career in sports or business?

The completed applications should be submitted to Gail Gultz, Boulders’ Educational Director, at teach@nyboulders.com.

Information regarding season tickets and packages for the Boulders’ 2022 season are available by calling 845-364-0009 or sliding to www.NYBoulders.com.
