π₯ ROSTER OPENING π₯
Firecrackers Stokes 14U is looking to add 1β4 more athletes to an already strong and competitive roster.
We are a strong 2030/2031 team playing a high-caliber schedule built for athletes with the grit, determination, work ethic, and attitude to compete at the college level.
With a current roster of 10 girls, weβre looking to bolster our group to help meet the demands of a highly competitive multi-day travel schedule while also balancing the realities of high school, school ball, and travel commitments.
π₯ Current Needs:
β’ 1 bracket-ready pitcher with strong command to compliment our pitching staff
β’ 2β3 versatile utility players
β’ All positions considered
β’ Age: 2030-2031 (Strong 2032s will also be considered)
But talent alone isnβt what weβre building.
The right fit for this group wonβt just bring skill β sheβll bring the character, attitude, and team-first mindset to seamlessly blend into a culture built around competing for each other.
We value toughness, accountability, coachability, and players who care as much about the name on the front of the jersey as they do their own success.
π What We Offer:
β’ High-level tournament schedule (PGF, Atlanta Legacy & more)
β’ Strong recruiting support
β’ Top-tier organizational backing
β’ Competitive environment with like-minded athletes pursuing next-level goals
β’ A team culture centered around trust, work ethic, and playing for each other
π Practice Location: Lillington, NC
If youβre looking for a program that will challenge you, support you, and push you toward your goals while being part of a strong softball family β letβs talk.

Today is about more than a date on the calendar. Itβs about renewal, grace, and the reminder that no matter how long the season feelsβ¦ light always finds its way back in.
This game will challenge you. It will test your patience, your confidence, your heart. There will be moments where things donβt go your way, where you feel counted out, overlooked, or stretched thin.
But just like Easter reminds usβ¦ the story isnβt over in the hard moments.
Growth is happening.
Strength is being built.
Purpose is being revealed.
βLet us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.β ~ Galatians 6:9
To our girls~ keep showing up. Keep trusting the process. Keep loving each other through the highs and the lows. What youβre building together is bigger than wins and lossesβ¦ itβs character, resilience, and something that lasts.
To our families ~ thank you for pouring into this journey. Your support, your sacrifice, your belief⦠it matters more than you know.
We donβt just play with talent.
We play with heart.
We play with purpose.
We play with honor.
And just like this day reminds us ~ the best is still ahead.
Happy Easter,
Coach Terence
