Team Chevrolet provides Phenom Baseball Academy with new equipment, monetary contribution, and instructional clinics

Vallejo, June 16, 2021 – Team Chevrolet, proud member of the Del Grande Dealer Group, is partnering with the Phenom Baseball Academy in Vallejo. Team Chevrolet has joined forces with the national Chevrolet Youth Baseball & Softball program to provide new equipment, invitations to free instructional clinics and an opportunity for community members to earn donations for their league via a test drive fundraiser.

“Playing baseball and softball helps kids develop skills like leadership, cooperation, and sportsmanship while bringing families and communities together to show their support. Team Chevrolet and Chevrolet Youth Baseball & Softball are proud to participate in a sport that brings so many smiles to kids and families in Vallejo.” said Jay Brownrigg, General Manager for Team Chevrolet. “Chevrolet believes in the power of play as a way for young people to build the skills needed to be successful in the future and supports the spirit of teamwork that baseball and softball instills in its players.”

2021 marks the sixteenth year of Chevrolet’s Youth Baseball & Softball program and has benefitted over 8 million players since it launched. In 2020, more than 1,300 Chevrolet dealers participated across the country.

Team Chevrolet presented Phenom Baseball Academy an equipment kit that includes useful items such as equipment bags, first aid kits, batting tees, and ball buckets. The sponsorship also includes youth clinics featuring current and former MLB/MiLB players and coaches, or instruction from Ripken Baseball.

In addition, Team Chevrolet presented a check representing a one-time monetary contribution to Phenom Baseball Academy. Sponsored leagues across the country will have the chance to earn additional funds as community members take test drives at their partnering dealership to help support the league.

“Chevrolet vehicles are designed and built with busy families in mind, featuring a comprehensive suite of available safety features; technologies that make the journey more comfortable and engaging for the entire family; and the space and flexibility needed to haul people and cargo. We would encourage everyone to come take a look at what Chevrolet has to offer,” said Brownrigg.
