💥 TRYOUT UPDATE – RBA SOUTH SPARKS 8U & POSSIBLE 10U TEAM! 💥

We’re excited to see everyone at our upcoming Sparks tryout!

Due to scheduling and logistics, we have made a few changes to the original format. Rather than hosting a combine with electronic hit tracking and speed measurements, we will now be conducting a traditional softball tryout focused on:

🥎 Hitting
🥎 Fielding
🥎 Throwing
🥎 Running

The best part? There is now NO cost to attend!

In addition to our 8U team, we would also like to invite 10U players to attend. While this tryout is primarily for our 8U Sparks team, we are gauging interest in forming a separate 10U Sparks team for the future. Attending does not commit you to anything—it simply gives us an opportunity to evaluate interest and talent in the area.

Whether you’re looking for a competitive environment to develop your skills or just want to learn more about the Sparks program, we’d love to see you there!

📅 Monday, June 15
⏰ 6:00–6:45 PM
📍 RBA South – 2535 Oak Lake Blvd, Midlothian, VA 23112

💥 Come show your Spark! 💥

Feel free to share this post with any 8U or 10U softball families who may be interested.

One of our own could use your prayers right now.

Last weekend, Officer Wells was shot in the line of duty. By God’s grace, he is still with us, and for that we are incredibly thankful. While he has a long road to recovery ahead, we know he is surrounded by the love, support, and prayers of this community.

Officer Wells, thank you for your courage, selflessness, and unwavering commitment to protecting others. Your heroic actions to rescue a fellow officer and keep our community safe are an inspiration to us all.

Please join us in praying for Officer Wells, his family, and everyone involved as he continues his recovery. We can’t wait to have you back on the sidelines cheering on our Sparks once again! 💥🥎

Happy Birthday to our very own #9, Noah Gleason! 🥎🎉

Noah is a natural leader on the field and brings energy to everything she does — whether it’s practice, a scrimmage, or tournament day. We love watching her continue to grow as a player, seeing the passion she has for the game, and the way she encourages and supports her teammates.

We’re thankful to have her as part of the Sparks family and hope she has the best birthday celebrating today! 🥎💥

We didn’t end with the scores that we were hoping for today, but we still count the day a big success! The girls played hard and learned a lot (as well as the coaches) at our first official tournament. Even though the score didn’t reflect it, the girls showed vast improvement on defense during their final game of the day (the other team just ripped the cover off of the ball 😆). We appreciate the sportsmanship and learning experiences from our opponents Halifax Heat 8U and Lady Renegades 8u! Now we know what it takes to compete and will continue to work hard to have our time to shine. LET’S GO SPARKS! 💥🥎
