😣 PLOT TWIST: Mother Nature said “nope” 👎

Bad News: Due to the incredibly poor air quality, which is not expected to resolve entirely before tryouts, we have made the decision to postpone Hardball Select tryouts. While we’d love to see you all at the field, we’d rather our player’s lungs stay healthy and happy!

The Good News: The new [tentative] date will be Saturday, August 1st.

The Good(er) News: There’s more time to register and tell your friends! Come tryout for the teams!

Please keep the Funk family, along with the Hopkins and Caledonia Chaos softball communities in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate Maddy’s sudden passing. She was a teammate, a friend, and an athlete who shared the field with so many of our kids.
