The Bainbridge Leisure Services Department is offering private baseball and softball lessons to residents of the city of Bainbridge and surrounding communities.

Most lessons will be 60 minutes and may include pitching, defense and base running. They will be coordinated by city athletic director Stanley Bell, a Bainbridge native who played for the Bainbridge High School Bearcats baseball team.

They can be designed to fit the needs of the athlete.

Fees will be $25 for one lesson, $65 for three lessons, $95 for five lessons and $185 for 10 lessons.

There will also be abbreviated 30-minute lessons for $10 less than the 60-minute prices.

More information about the lessons can be obtained by calling Bell at (229) 205-1749 or emailing him at stanleyb@bainbridge city.com.
