DID YOU KNOW...?
Last weekend, Norcross Youth Softball Summer All-Stars competed in the 2025 Braves Country Pre-Tri-County tournament in Buford, with teams across Gwinnett and beyond, and won both the 6U and 10U Silver brackets. More than 100 softball games were played over 6 days for all teams and age groups between 6-18. Congrats to the girls, and way to bring home the hardware to Norcross!
The Norcross Softball Summer All-Stars continue to compete in the upcoming Braves Country Tri-County tournament next week in Suwanee. Follow along here! Good luck, girls!
