The professional baseball team LG Twins held the 'Ellini Family Baseball Picnic' on the 10th at LG Champions Park in Icheon, Gyeonggi Province. This event was a special program conducted for 20 Ellinis (LG Twins child members) and their families, designed so that families could have a fun and meaningful time together.
The 'Ellini Family Baseball Picnic' included a baseball clinic where LG Twins players taught the Ellinis basic baseball skills such as catch and batting. It also featured baseball-related tours and experiences of baseball facilities including baseball recreation with parents, feeding rooms, and weight training rooms. In particular, participants had a special time sharing a meal with the same diet as the players in the players' cafeteria, indirectly experiencing the daily life of the players.
Kim Byeolha (9 years old), an Ellini who participated in the 'Ellini Family Baseball Picnic,' said, "I usually like baseball a lot and just watched it every day, but it was fun to hit the ball and play defense while actually having a baseball game."
Kim Byeolha's mother, Son Dahee, noted, "My child loves baseball and came here, but I was very satisfied with the variety and richness of the program, which was better than I expected. I think it's really good that this kind of program exists. Nowadays, kids also like baseball a lot, so it would be nice to create opportunities for them to approach baseball more easily."
The LG Twins marketing team stated, "The 'Ellini Family Baseball Picnic' is an event planned for children fans to experience the joy of baseball directly and to create precious memories together with their families. We will continue to communicate with fans through various fan engagement programs in the future."
Meanwhile, LG Twins plans to hold the 'Ellini Family Baseball Picnic' two more times on May 31 and June 14. For more details about the 'Ellini Family Baseball Picnic,' visit the LG Twins website.
