Academy Sports + Outdoors rewarded two Golden Triangle area youth baseball coaches with a special “Back to School” gift card reward ceremony at the Academy Sports + Outdoors Beaumont location.

Aaron Long, a Vidor youth baseball league coach and Clint Crile, a youth coach with SETX Baseball Academy each received gift cards. Academy Sports + Outdoors presented each of them with $500 in gift cards - $250 for personal use, and $250 for getting equipment for their team. Doggett Ford Park is giving the coaches an additional $150 each. 

Academy Sports + Outdoors is a partner with FORD Park and FORD Fields, as the ticket office naming partner.  

“Academy Sports + Outdoors is an integral part of the Beaumont community,” said Claudio Oliveira, General Manager at FORD Park. “We are thrilled that they chose to reward these outstanding coaches.  They’re both coaches and fathers that take time out of their busy lives and work hard to mentor these young boys.” He concluded.
