San Carlos Force 10C Team Holding Fundraiser

The team hopes to raise enough funds to help offset travel expenses by hosting a Hit-a-Thon fundraiser.



This year’s San Carlos Youth Softball Association (SCYSA) 10C team qualified to compete in the California State Games in San Diego beginning July 19 by placing fifth out of 27 teams at the Northern California Championships held in June.

The team is made up of 9 and 10 year old girls who all share a love of competitive level softball.  The team started the summer season with a goal of representing San Carlos at the California State Games in San Diego and the strong finish at the Nor Cal qualifier ensured a bid to the State Games. 


The team hopes to raise enough funds to help offset travel expenses by hosting a Hit-a-Thon fundraiser.

Each player will receive five pitches, marking their one farthest hit of the five. You may sponsor a player by donating a pledge per foot or a flat donation.  Ball distances may range from 150-250 feet. The hit-a-thon will take place on Thursday and donations will be collected by Saturday.

The San Carlos Youth Softball Association (SCYSA) is a non-profit organization operated 100% by volunteers. The tax ID# 94-3131530.

Checks should be payable to SCYSA and sent to Roxanne Earnshaw 956 Tamarack Ave., San Carlos, CA 94070 or given to the player you sponsored for them to turn in.

If the city council likes fake plastic nature, then let them saran-wrap their own yards! LEAVE OURRead More PARKS ALONE!! This is soccer special interest pressure on city government at its worst, and the city council appears unwilling or unable to withstand it. Crestview Park is a particularly quiet, serene, simple park with lovely views which the council now wants to turn into a sports arena. Any day you can go there and see families playing on the grass, toddlers and moms enjoying picnics and play time, kids learning to ride their bikes on the nice flat paved area, athletes and older folks enjoying the flat natural track (the only one in San Carlos) to get in shape, teens throwing frisbees on the lawn. It is a perfect place for ALL residents to enjoy according to their needs, not a sports arena dedicated to one activity at the expense of all. Belmont faced a similar lack of sports venues, but they did not choose to pave paradise. They wisely raised money and built a sports complex and spared their beautiful parks for use by ALL residents. I would like to see our city council do the right thing also. And by the way, the opposition to this short-sighted plan is far more than "some residents"! Please visit our booth at Hometown Days.

One summer my kid had soccer camp on at an artificial turf field. It was terrible. It madeRead More everything hotter and very uncomfortable. I had to pull my kid out of camp early because of it. I do not think it is better for the environment OR for kids. Just go to any turf field and try to walk across it on a hot day. Try to go barefoot on it (good luck!) We have been told not to microwave plastic containers because of BPA and bad chemicals that can cause cancer. What about heating up plastic grass and running around on it, breathing the fumes that come off it?? How is that any different?

Artificial turf is appropriate for dedicated use sports venues, not for multi-use city parks.

Thanks for doing this. The one blatant thing I observe on a daily basis is the number and frequencyRead More of deputy's at Starbucks on 800 laurel street and the sky kitchen. I never see them in the neighborhoods. The police department was much better
