Meet The Ambassadors

On January 7, 2012 L.E.A.D. hosted its 2nd Annual Meet The Ambassadors event at the Diamond Directors training facility in Marietta. Meet The Ambassadors is a free event that allows the public to learn more about the dynamic young men and families we serve. It also gives the attendees a chance to train like the Ambassadors.

The Ambassadors set up/lead training stations and show guests the proper way to execute drills and tell what parts of the swing the drills support. To teach is to learn twice so this event is a great tool to help Ambassadors be even more accountable for the information they receive throughout their tenure in L.E.A.D.

Always a hit, Meet The Ambassadors was a huge success this year as well. Thank you to everyone who came out and we look forward to seeing you at some games this year! Click here for more photos.
