WE NEVER
LEFT THE
STANDARD.
Florida Select has been building champions since 2005. Twenty years. Through two decades of play, every athlete who wanted to continue playing college softball did exactly that. Not most. Every single one.
The org went quiet in some regions — but the standard never did. 2026 is the full return. New infrastructure. New coaching staff. New regions. Same relentless commitment to developing players and women of character who compete at the next level.
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." — Philippians 4:13

— THE RETURN
MORE THAN A
TRAVEL ORG.
Florida Select is committed to developing the whole player — the athlete on the field and the woman off it. We coach skills, fundamentals, and the heart of the game, and we use softball as a catalyst to build character, integrity, and a path to higher education.
Since our founding, every athlete who wanted to play college softball has had the opportunity to do so. That is not a promise — it is a twenty-year record.
01
COMPETE
Power schedules and showcase tournaments – local, regional, and national. We play against the best competition there is.
03
CHARACTER
Sportsmanship, teamwork, and confidence in every player. The skills built here go far beyond the diamond.
02
ACADEMICS
The same standard in the classroom as on the field. No exceptions. Education comes first.
04
COLLEGE PATH
From D1 to JUCO — every player who wants to play college ball will be worked and pushed. That is the commitment.
— THE STAFF
