The WORTH Firecracker Red Hots are a competitive travel team based out of Leominster, MA. Our primary practice field is the Monahan Complex in Dracut.
Firecracker Philosophy - It is our mission as coaches and parents to provide our young athletes with one of the greatest sports experiences they could ever imagine. We believe that all players should strive for academic excellence in the classroom, get actively involved in their community, learn and focus on developing strong fundamental athletic skills, understand the true meaning of playing within a team concept and have fun doing it. High expectations + lofty goals = a wonderful, memorable and life long experience. It is also the expectation that all players, parents and coaches will represent the Firecracker Organization in a positive and well respected manner.

The Red Hots got to the fields at 10:15 AM, played 5 straight games and ended up leaving exactly 12 hours later at 10:15 PM. The day will be remembered for a long time as one of the more demanding and interesting days of competition for this team. Normally knocking off the #1 seed would a good day in itself but following that win up with a win over a very good RI Thunder made the day a day of accomplishments. The championship game against the NH Gators was almost surreal. The Red Hots went up 2 to 0 followed by the Gators going up 4 to 2 followed by the Red Hots scoring 4 runs in the bottom half of the inning to go up 6-4 where the score remained. And while this very entertainign game was going on, millions of Mayflies descended upon the field making it almost impossible to play. Pictures looked like it was snowing. The air started to thin out by the 6th inning but only because all these millions of Mayflies had begun to drop and cover the infield & outfield. Quite disgusting yet it made for a very unique championship game. Note: Parents were writing the next day that they were finding Mayflies in their daughter's uniform still! Red Hots finish #1 out of 54 teams. Champions get jackets!
