Jeronym Hanuska - a young, promising baseball player
Jerry got into this sport in 2015 as a teenage, who was looking for an interesting and for him ideal sport. As he says, after he quit athletics, he didn't want to stop playing sports and was intrigued by his dad's story about his sports past in softball. When he tried his first pitches with a borrowed glove, he was so intrigued that his parents decided to enroll him for a baseball training camp with the Prague team Kotlářka in Hluboká nad Vltavou. After a week of training, he decided to stay with baseball. In Kotlářka, he played first base, third base and especially pitching until the end of the season 2021. At the beginning of 2022, thanks to his long-time coach Kuba Sládek, he got the opportunity to show what he could do at one training academy based in Regensburg, Germany. It is an elite baseball academy considered the best in Europe and we are very proud of possibility to be at sports growing of such a symphatetic young man and support him in his baseball career.

"When I received a message from the head coach that I had been accepted to the academy and they would like me to move there as quickly as possible, I was very excited. Such a chance comes only once. I was also very lucky that the school has supported me and so I was able to move to Regensburg in the second half of March this year. Now I live here for several months and I really like it here."
