At the 2026 SFAAA League Awards, we announced our winner of the 2025 Hurricane Showdown Volunteer of the Year! 🏆🥎

We’re proud to recognize JJ Agostino for this well-deserved honor!

JJ played a huge role in making the tournament a success, serving as our Volunteer Coordinator and helping organize the incredible volunteers who gave their time throughout the weekend.

He also spent plenty of time at the tournament selling merchandise, helping players get their Hurricane Showdown swag, and making sure things kept moving behind the scenes.

The Hurricane Showdown takes an incredible team of volunteers, and JJ went above and beyond to help make the 2025 tournament one to remember.

Congratulations, JJ, and thank you for everything you do for the Hurricane Showdown and our softball community! ❤️🥎

Jonathan has been a member of the SFAAA community since January 2022 and has held multiple leadership roles within the organization. He previously served as Membership Chair before being appointed Recruitment Director on the SFAAA Board of Directors. In those roles, Jonathan has focused on strengthening the league’s membership, welcoming new players, and creating opportunities for people of all experience levels to find their place within the SFAAA community.

While Jonathan may not have grown up playing baseball or little league, his passion for the game—and even more so, his passion for people—has become a defining part of his involvement with SFAAA. Originally from upstate New York, Jonathan understands the importance of finding a community where you feel welcomed and supported. That perspective has fueled his commitment to introducing new players to softball, including those who have never swung a bat or stepped onto a softball field, and helping them discover the friendships, competition, and sense of belonging that the game can provide.

As Tournament Director, Jonathan looks forward to bringing that same spirit of inclusion and community to the Hurricane Showdown. He is particularly appreciative of the many individuals who have dedicated their time, energy, and passion to building the tournament into what it is today. Their commitment has created a strong foundation for the event, and Jonathan looks forward to honoring that work while building upon the path they have paved.

“I’m incredibly grateful to the people who have poured their time and passion into the Hurricane Showdown before me,” said Rogers. “I have the opportunity to build on the foundation they created, and I want to carry that tradition forward while continuing to find new ways to make the tournament an incredible experience for every player, team, and visitor who comes to Fort Lauderdale.”

The Hurricane Showdown is more than a softball tournament. It is an opportunity to bring together players from across the country, showcase the incredible community of Fort Lauderdale, and celebrate the friendships and connections that make LGBTQ+ softball so special.

Jonathan looks forward to working with the SFAAA community, tournament volunteers, sponsors, and participating teams to continue the tradition of the Hurricane Showdown and welcome the softball community to Fort Lauderdale in 2026.
