Help Keep Our 14U Phoenix Team Together
On Saturday morning at 7:45 a.m., our 14U travel baseball team received an email that the organization we had signed with was shutting down effective immediately.
No warning.
No transition plan.
Just done.
We had practiced all of January. Ten boys committed. Families invested. Relationships built.
Each family had already paid $1,250 toward the original program for:
Tournament entry fees
Uniforms
Field rentals
Winter training facility time
At this point, we have been advised that the likelihood of recovering those funds is extremely low.
Instead of letting the season disappear, the coaches immediately began reaching out to other organizations to keep this team together.
We found a new organization willing to take us in — but there are real costs involved.
What We Need to Raise: $15,000
Here is exactly where the money goes:
Tournament Fees: $4,200
Weekday Games: $2,400
Practice Field Rentals: $750
Insurance & Administrative Costs: $500
Uniforms & Equipment Replacement: $6,500
Gameday Baseballs: $400
Total: $15,000
The majority of these fees are due immediately in order to secure our tournament spots and roster.
Why This Matters
These ten boys did everything right.
They showed up.
They practiced.
They committed.
This fundraiser is not about extras or upgrades.
It is about preserving a season that was taken away unexpectedly.
If you are able to donate, share, or connect us with a sponsor, we are incredibly grateful.
The support we have already received has been overwhelming, and it reminds us why youth sports matter.
This team chose the name Phoenix — because when something burns down, you rise.
Thank you for helping these boys rise. ⚾
