Mariner Softball 2026

After an unsuccessful attempt to get our first game played on an acceptable but still wet field, we hit the road for a Conference Game with Houston on 4/29, followed by three days of games at Rally in the Valley. That opens up the floodgates with our 6 team tournament the next weekend, a week of home games after that and then back on the road.  Our players are so ready to be competing like the Champions they are. Please come support us vocally at all our games

The sun is shining, the fields were briefly clear and the 26th season of Homer High Softball is starting next week. Not quite Spring training in Florida but these players are tough and dedicated and ready for the season. Hope springs eternal…..

The weather is warming, the players are gathering and it is time to prepare for a new season. Practice starts March 4th. First scheduled game is April 22nd in Kenai and skill work has started. Year 26 begins, come support us.

The grass is greening, the air is clear, HHS had its first pre-season meeting and Tsunami Softball is open for registration.  The gloves are coming out and dreams are starting. Check out the HS schedule and the Tsunami page for more information. 

The schedule is starting to fill in- see listing on this webpage. Winter practice times      (optional) will start on December 15th as per schedule on Remind. First week of official practice is March 10th, the week of Spring Break. Obviously, all optional then but if players are in town they can pick and choose times that fit in with their plans.  I hope to have a Player and Parent meeting towards the end of February.  Contact me if any questions. 

The future of our 25th season is being written now. After School practice Tuesdays, Sundays in the Dome 1-4 and open gym times at your convenience. If not doing a sport currently  you owe it to your teammates to be in regular strengthening and conditioning. 

The 2024 Season has come to an end. Always such a sad time to say goodbye to this wonderful group that has bonded and struggled together for the last 4 months. Successes, tribulations,  unexpected challenges, newly discovered intensity all blended together to hopefully send these athletes out into the world as stronger adults. Thanks for all the support from the parents and community, Gratitude for honoring the life and spirit  of Bri, smiles for seeing their individual and personal growth. So many wins that are not reflected on the traditional scoreboard. Thank you all.

The Regular conference Season of 2024 is in the books. We were 6-5-1 in Conference play and head to the Region Tournament in Palmer on May 22nd. Please see the Regions page for more details but likely Gamechanger and MaxPreps will stay more current. Thanks for all your support. It was a crazy season with weather and cancellations but we have high hopes for this tournament. 

Season is moving fast. Thanks to all for the Bash on the Bay help. Lots of kudos from our visitors and some great ball games with thrilling comebacks. Schedule has been continually revised with the weather changes and we still have a lot of travel ahead of us ( as well as graduation, Concerts, Solo-Ensemble) and our final exam at Regions. This week we have two away games, our last two home stands and also a memorial to Bri Hetrick, on May 11th at 11am at the field. Busy athletic contests but a chance to remind ourselves of the bigger perspectives of living in a world with all too pervasive and unacceptable tragedy. 

The Homer High High School Season will start off shortly with games in Homer and Sitka. Exciting to see what these groups of experienced and brand new players will do this year.  The summer Tsunami Season for players 8-18 has opened registration until May 18th – information on the Tsunami page.
