We. are. community.
Since our founding in 2017, we’ve been incredibly fortunate to receive strong support from local businesses and our community. This generosity has played a pivotal role in helping us grow, and in return, we’ve made it our mission to give back to the very community that has supported us.
Each year, the Southside Crew—our players, coaches, and families—come together to find meaningful ways to give back. While we are dedicated to teaching the game of baseball and achieving success on the field, our greater focus is on developing young athletes into fine individuals who understand the importance of contributing to others.
Here are just a few of the incredible things our organization has accomplished over the past few years, thanks to the continued support of our community.

Our 10u boys went up to CHKD and celebrated the completion of their reading program entitled "Reach Out and Read". Our 'Crew boys and some of their siblings had a blast celebrating the kids amazing achievements in this summer program. The look on the CHKD kids faces as our players read to them will be a memory to last a lifetime. Such an amazing experience for everyone.

Boys Pass Out Thanksgiving Meals at Oscar Smith Middle School
150 turkeys! The boys from all our Crew teams met at Oscar Smith Middle School and passed out turkeys and sides to the local community. This was our first of a many "Crew Cares" events planned for this 2019 Holiday Season. Teaching our kids at a young age the importance of giving back to your community whether it be financially, time or lending a hand is important. After all, our platform is supported greatly by local Hampton Roads businesses, so anything we can do to help is a simple way of saying thank you.
