Congratulations on making the commitment to participate on the Palisades Charter High School Baseball team.  The physical development of high school athletes as they train, practice and play baseball is highly visible; yet far too often, the character building aspect of a high school team is overlooked. High school athletics helps foster so much more than merely physical development. These athletes will leave High School equipped with a variety of skills that they can apply in many aspects of their lives.  I hope that all participants have a positive and rewarding baseball experience.

GO PALI!

HEAD COACHDear Palisades families, student athletes and community:

Welcome to another season of Palisades Dolphins baseball. 2019 was a dynamic year with the team moving through the tournament and ending up at Dodger Stadium. Truly a memorable year and another group of kids who will always be remembered for their play, development and personal growth.

We are all looking forward to another exciting year to be able to work with this dynamic group of young men, parents, community and administrators. I have been fortunate to have coached at a professional, collegiate and high school levels, all up and down the west coast.The past 13 years at Palisades, have been rewarding, working with some outstanding people in all of these domains and have been a pleasure to watch everyone’s success following their time at Palisades Charter.

The tradition of Palisades baseball has been bountiful over the years, both on the field and off. Our Academic

achievements have been unparalleled and the advancing to quality academic institutions, has been honorable and earned. We cannot accomplish all of this without the players, parents and communities’ contributions over the years and future. Again, thank you!

There are many sacrifices with time, monies and energy to be a part of a competitive sports program, by all. It is truly appreciated and noticeable everywhere you look. I want to reiterate what an honor it is to have the trust to work with the players. All the coaches, board and administrators are looking forward to another enjoyable season!

Sincerely,

Mike VoelkelMike VoelkelHead Baseball Coach-Palisades Charter
