      <title>GT Shockers - Beaumont, TX</title>
      <link>http://community.active.com/thread/245215</link>
      <description>&lt;!-- [DocumentBodyStart:5dc84662-52c4-4a0b-b18e-6ae3a8ed4b70] --&gt;&lt;div class="jive-rendered-content"&gt;&lt;p&gt;The GT Shockers girls fastpitch organization is based out of Beaumont, TX. We are proud to announce the official launch of our brand new updated website! We were originally established in 2005 and are currently in our seventh season now. Our organization is growing rapidly and we continue to get more and more inquiries each season from all over southeast TX and southwest LA. Some of our players currently travel close to 100 miles one way to be a part of our group. Our primary objective is to develop all of our girls to their fullest potential and assist them with their dreams of one day playing college softball. We currently have a 100% signing rate for all of our girls that have completed our Gold program.....over 30 players over the last four and a half seasons to be exact.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For those of you that may be interested in our program, we hope this new site will be used as an informative tool to help answer many commonly asked questions about what we represent. Please feel free to visit the site and refer to the "Contact" page if you are interested in learning more about us. If your questions are still not answered by the information in the site, or you simply wish to inquire further, please do not ever hesitate to contact one of us. Whether you are an interested coach, player, or parent at any age level.....all inquires will always be welcomed. All current coaches / contacts for the entire organization will be listed under this page. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We take great pride in our strong work ethic, our character, and we strive for excellence in everything we do. We encourage anyone, that is seriously interested in our program, to come out and see what we're all about for yourself. Many of our practices are open to the general public and we will welcome anyone with open arms. Just the same, we encourage all of our current players to take advantage of visiting other teams open practices or "picking up" with them at tournaments as often as they can (as long as it doesn't conflict with our own schedule). We believe that by having that type of open policy, it only benefits our girls that much more and gives them a greater chance to develop even quicker to their fullest potential. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Until we have a chance to meet on the fields, keep working hard, dreaming big, and NEVER settle for anything less than your absolute best......God Bless! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bryan Sartin&lt;br/&gt;GT Shockers&lt;br/&gt;Public Relations / Head Coach-10u&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;gtshockers.com&lt;br/&gt;409-749-9251&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- [DocumentBodyEnd:5dc84662-52c4-4a0b-b18e-6ae3a8ed4b70] --&gt;</description>
