We tried all summer to update our page name to our new team name, but for some reason Facebook would not allow us because the name violated a new policy. Oddly enough they did allow us to create a new page. Please follow our new page to stay updated with all Bombers 2030 news!

Best of luck to Olivia, “the Ocho,” as she competes in USSSA-Fastpitch Softball All American Games as a direct invite. Only a select few get this honor based on how well they perform at the All American Games tryouts.
We are proud of you and know you will do great!!

Last night most of our team was able to attend the Florida Vibe Athletics/OKC Spark Softball game. The Vibe were amazing hosts and let our girls take the field with them to before the game!! All the girls had so much fun meeting the players, watching the game, chasing foul balls and HR Balls, getting autographs and photos!! It was great night for softball!🥎 💙🫶
Last month Coach Rick and Esme made a bet on who would win the Tennessee/Florida game in the college WS. Esme was confident Tennessee would win, and Coach was ready to take that bet. Loser gets a bucket of ice cold water dumped on them. Here is the video from our end of season party…hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did! 😂
Thank you Coach Rick for always doing fun things for the girls.

We celebrated the end of our Spring season at Coach Rick and Jessica’s house. Coach and his wife not only welcomed us into their home, but they catered in Guac Shop Mexican Grill (definitely a new team favorite) and rented the tallest water bounce slide in SWFL!!

Girls had their last tournament of the season last weekend in Orlando. They played some very talented teams and learned what it means to never give up, no matter how bad things may have started out. One game on Saturday they gave up 8 runs in the first inning, but the girls never quit and just kept chipping away each inning to walk-it off with a 2RBI single to win 9-8!
Overall, they had a great season! They ended with a winning record, had a team batting average of .347 (up 53% from last season), and continued to build strong relationships with each other. We can’t wait to see all that they will accomplish next season!!
