All-Star Champions
Congratulations to both the 14U and 10U Souhegan Valley Storm all star teams for winning their respective state tournaments this past weekend and advancing to the New England Regional tournament the weekend of July 30. This is a huge accomplishment for our league and represents the effort of the coaches, parents, but most importantly the young ladies in our league. The SV Storm teams are comprised of players from the towns that compete in our regular softball season – Amherst, Bedford, Brookline, Hollis, Mason, Milford, and Wilton.

The 14U Storm has played in 4 tournaments and has shown continuous tenacity by reaching the championship game in 3 Babe Ruth tournaments and finishing 2-2 at a Massachusetts ASA tournament. The team now has played 24 games since the end of May. They again battled hard in the NH Babe Ruth State tournament – having to play 3 games on Sunday. The Storm built a 7-2 lead against a feisty Dover team that has been a challenge for them to beat this season. Dover mounted a rally in the bottom of the 7th, but the Storm defense stiffened and held on for a close 7-6 win to take the state championship. Every player continues to contribute to the team’s success with timely hitting and clutch fielding.

The 14U Storm will play next in the New England Regional tournament at Plaistow, NH the weekend of July 30

10U All-Star Champions

The 10U Storm has also played in 4 tournaments, reaching the championship game in all but one tournament. They finished 2nd at the ASA State Tournament, and on the Babe Ruth Tournament Trail have gone undefeated to win both the District and NH State Championship. They have been led by some fantastic pitching and are getting great hits from everyone - including 3 out of the park home runs in the State tournament! As with the 14U team, the 10U team is receiving contributions from all players on offense and defense.

The 10U Storm will play next in the New England Regional tournament in Pittsfield, MA the weekend of July 30.

12U
The 12U Storm has done a great job with a new team, having played in 3 tournaments this season. The girls have shown a lot of improvement and competitiveness while playing against some of the best players in the state. So far they have played in three tournaments and will complete their season the weekend of July 30 in the Litchfield Invitational.

Fundraising
Playing in tournament softball is a time consuming experience. The girls have put in a lot practice time this year, and based on their tournaments have already played an additional 15-20 games - almost 2 seasons worth of games. Tournament softball creates additional costs for the players and their families – uniforms, travel, and other costs. To help defray the expense to families we are asking for your support to help raise money for the SV Storm.

This year the Storm has partnered with the Amherst Garder Center on Route 101 in fundraising. The AGC is offering a 15% discount on purchases on July 23, 24, and 25 when you use the Storm Coupon. They will donate 20% of all proceeds for sales with the coupon.

Please take some time this weekend to stop by the store and pick up something for your yard or home, and you can help support these teams in the process.
