FALL TBALLSTARS - Fall 2024

Introducing the new 'HP TBALLSTARS' program at Howard Palmetto, launching this fall! Our aim is to form six teams of 12 players aged 4-5 years old, with options for local play or competition against other South Florida leagues. The program will run from mid August to mid December, with flexible practice and game schedules to accommodate your family's needs.

We're thrilled to have secured coaches for at least four teams of the six teams but we must cap registration at 72 participants. We're currently seeking 2 dedicated Managers to step up and coach the remaining two teams. 

Priority registration will be given to returning players, followed by public registration based on interest. This program is exclusively designed for 4 and 5-year-old players.  Practices and games will be held at either Coral Reef or Suniland Field 1. You can expect atleast one practice session per week (Monday to Thursday, early evening). Games on either Friday nights or Saturday mornings. Uniforms consisting of hats, jerseys, pants, belts & socks included in $150 registration fee. 

We're seeking enthusiastic head coaches and assistant coaches to join our team. If you're interested, please don't hesitate to reach out to president@howardpalmetto.com as soon as possible.
