Building a "Team" the Community Can Be Proud Of!

      Today was a big day for Fowlkes Baseball!  It's the beginning of a new baseball program that will make a community proud and teach these young players how to succeed with a unique teamwork approach.
      The families in this part of Cobb County deserve better.  Osborne High School has not won a region game in 6 years and Campbell High School went to the state playoffs for the first time in 23 years back in 2015.
      We need your support to make this happen!  Check for constant updates on the progress of these hard working players on this website.  
      A big thanks to Josh Kutzli, Noah Whitehead, Ben Woodard & Jacob Runnels for coming to work out for 4 hours today at Campbell High School.  
      Like I said, "This is only the beginning!"

I'll admit it. I committed a sin! I did something that no other youth baseball coach has ever done. Are you ready for this? I didn't stall.

The son of Tony and Julie became a star the other day. I met mom, dad, and Braylon a few years ago, when they played on the same team that I was helping to coach.

Mom would have been 90 this year, dad 95. But the spring of 2020, whew… what a year to be alive.
