New Jersey Sparks Softball
Congratulations 12U NJ Sparks Red for placing in 2014 Pony Nationals top 10 teams! Tied for 2nd in the State!
We wish all of the girls the best of luck as they move to the 14 Level in the 2014 Fall / 2015 Spring/Summer Season.
Manager: Brian Cucci
Coaches: Mike MacMullen, Joe Granato
Team Description:
We maintain a competitive schedule of tournament play in the fall and spring/summer consisting of Pony, ASA, USSSA and charity tournaments. Dedicated coaches concerned with skills development and character building through a balance of practices, scrimmages and tournament play (PONY, ASA etc.) Each girl will learn how to make themselves and their teamates better through skills development, devotion and encouragement of her team.
"If I fall down, my team will pick me up. The loyalty and dedication of my team allows me to challenge myself and push past what I think is my best. I reach new heights in my game and trust more in my team with every tournament, every game, every play. I will never doubt myself at the plate, on the mound or in the field, because I know if I stumble my teamates are always there to pick me up. That is why I am driven, that is why we succeed."
The Players on Sparks 12U Red are second year 12U players. The team was formed to play in the Fall 2013 through Pony Nationals in 2014. We practice out of Pequannock / Pompton Plains NJ 07444.
