Welcome to:

Coach Tony Heminger has given the future of baseball in Palm Beach County a huge gift! Tony has open his doors to, what has been named as "The HEMI Dome" a private 5000 sq ft. indoor baseball training facility right on his personal property, where the SOUTH FLORIDA HITMEN will call home. This state of the art facility boasts wall to wall indoor turf, retractable hitting cages, pitching mounds, catching zones, and an array of speed & conditioning equipment. Future plans have automatic pitching equipment and a Probatter going in. The SOUTH FLORIDA HITMEN will train at the Hemi Dome along side some of the most highly competitive high school, college & professional athletes in the area. Oh and we offer a big apology to our competition...as the HEMI Dome is not open to the public. Sorry guys!
THANK YOU COACH TONY HEMINGER for an opportunity of a lifetime. |
South Florida Hitmen "Give Back & Serve Others" this THANKSGIVING
|
The South Florida Hitmen Families had the opportunity to serve the community and give back this past Thanksgiving by participating in Christ Fellowship's and Big Heart Brigade's partnership to prepare and pack 75,000 Thanksgiving meals for delivery on Thanksgiving Day. "We think it is a great message to send to the boys about giving back and serving others." Said Gena Hugus, "We believe doing this as a group is a wonderful way to bond outside of baseball while teaching a much more important message to our children. We are so lucky and fortunate to be able to play baseball every weekend and there are families in our communities that can't afford to have a Thanksgiving meal."

The South Florida Hitmen finish 2nd Place in 11U SFTBL League Play.

Despite only being 9 & 10 years old...The South Florida Hitmen clawed their way to a 2nd Place finish in the 11 year old SFTBL Lake Worth 2013 League play. Teams can not under estimate the grit & determination these boys have to compete. Some 11U teams have even refused to play us, because we're only 10! Others have entered the games picking their line up and positions from a paper bag...thinking again...we're only 10! It doesn't take these teams long to pull out their A-Team and try to keep up...very few ever do though. We appreciate those teams who respect our boys for battling at the old age bracket.

Bottom of the 6th, South Florida Stealth at the plate, bases loaded, one out and the winning run on 2nd, the South Florida Hitmen never gave up. After a HUGE strike out at the plate for the 2nd out, the final play came down to a passed ball. Jackson Hugus (C) & Chandler Marsh (P) teamed up on a perfectly executed flip and tag out at home plate to give the South Florida Hitmen the final victory. Every player found a way to step up when called upon to contribute to this victory. From outstanding pitching and hitting, to fielding and base running, the South Florida Hitmen earned yet another victory in their quest to be one of the top 10U teams within the state.
