How Baseball Coaches Can Use Sporty Sprouts to Host a Successful Hit-A-Thon

Baseball coaches know that raising money for their teams can be a challenge. Equipment, uniforms, travel expenses, and tournament fees all add up quickly. Instead of relying on traditional fundraising methods like selling candy or organizing car washes, baseball coaches are turning to Sporty Sprouts' Hit-A-Thon to raise money in a fun, engaging, and high-impact way. We’ll explore how coaches can easily set up and run a Hit-A-Thon that benefits both their team and their community.

What Is a Hit-A-Thon? A Hit-A-Thon is an exciting fundraising event where players collect pledges based on the number of hits they make(maximum of 25 hittable pitches). Sponsors—whether family, friends, or local businesses—agree to donate a set amount per hit, or they can make a one-time donation. The more hits a player gets, the more funds they raise for the team!
