Florida is baseball country!Where are all the posters?

My son's first game is this afternoon, I wish him and his team the best of luck for the upcoming season!!!!! Let the games begin.

They're all out there preparing for the season. Many northerners are itching to get started so they're here more often.

Mnite... I sent you a PM from another thread, but I'll go ahead and ask here. But first, wecome to these boards.

You have a son who plays ball in NW Florida? What school?

Here in Ocala we have preseason openers on Thursday and Friday then our first district game next tuesday. I have been at the field each afternoon watching the practices. This is my sons first season on varsity.

We have our pre-season "first pitch" this Friday against Edgewater in the Orlando area, followed by a game Saturday with Lake Brantley.

Same here, pre-season begins tomorrow for our boys ( Melbourne HS Bulldogs ) and it hasn't come a day too soon.

have fun everyone!

I will be at tournaments all weekend. Bishop Moore has one and then St. Cloud. Good luck to Sarasota, the competition will be good.

my sons first preseason game is tommorow. Tournament starts on monday.

Thanks CoachRic. If you find yourself at a Sarasota game this season, please find me. I'm the catcher's dad.

we open with pensacola catholic on thursday and Pace high on friday.

We just played our first game yesterday-went really well-hope the rest of the season goes as well. My son plays for South Broward High School on the JV and Varsity squads.
