The A's Amigos program gives our community's Hispanic children the opportunity to interact with bilingual Spanish speaking A's players. Participants are able to learn about the value of sportsmanship and hard work from their role models. In addition to the pre-game chat, each child receives a game ticket and an A's cap. A's Amigos is sponsored by Kelly-Moore Paints and XFINITY, Home of the Most Live Sports.
Applications for the 2012 season will be available in February. Please call (510) 563-2329 or email community@oaklandathletics.com for more information.
The Take the Field with the A's program selects youth baseball and softball teams to join Oakland A's players on the field during the National Anthem, giving the youth a chance to live out their Major League dreams. Each participant receives an autographed baseball courtesy of the Oakland A's Community Fund and a t-shirt courtesy of Washington Hospital. The Take the Field with the A's program is presented by Washington Hospital.
Children 14 and under are invited onto the field after every Sunday day game to run the same bases that the A's do. A's mascot Stomper is present to cheer the participants on as they round the bases. Presented by Chevy.
California Police Youth Charities (CPYC) and the Oakland A's are working together on bringing local at-risk children to select Oakland A's home games during the regular season. Prior to the games, the children are allowed down on the field to watch the A's take batting practice and receive the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet an Oakland A's player and receive an autograph. CPYC is Cops for Kids.
