The Florida Pokers will be hosting their final tryout for their 2012 summer teams on January 29th, beginning at 1 pm, at Taravella HS, in Coral Springs. The tryout is very important for those wanting to play for the Pokers in 2012 as we plan to have all rosters filled following the tryout. We will be hosting 4 teams: 18u, 17u, 16u and 15u.

The Florida Pokers are happy to announce that this has been a big week for our 2011 Pokers White team!
- Early in the week we found out that Jordan Suarez (1B- American Senior HS) had made a verbal commitment to play his college baseball at Georgia State University. The coaches said they were very impressed with the power potential Jordan brought to the plate and his ability to handle college-level pitching.
- Later in the week, Allan Bencid (C- Cypress Bay HS) was named to the Under Armour Pre-Season All-American team and has been invited to their All-American Tournament taking place in January in Tucson, Arizona.
- We would also like to acknowledge Omar Williams (3B-Lake Worth Christian) and wish him good luck in the International Power Showcase, taking place at the end of this month also in Arizona. Omar will not only be representing the Pokers but also his home of St. Maarten, in the Caribbean.
