Welcome to the home of the Missouri Warcats Fastpitch Softball Organization. Established in 1988 by Jim Lowry and Gary Harris, the Missouri Warcats are one of the oldest, most respected and recognizable girl’s fastpitch softball clubs in east central Missouri.
The Missouri Warcats Organization has helped teach and develop the softball skills of over 1,500 young women as a not for profit entity. Since 1988, the Missouri Warcats Organization has managed over 200 teams. These teams have helped a number of young women obtain secondary education scholarships and numerous other career opportunities through a network of volunteers who dedicate their time and passion for the sport.
The Missouri Warcats Fastpitch Softball Organization’s mission is to teach its players valuable life lessons such as teamwork, discipline, commitment, self-sacrifice, perseverance, and fair play. As we begin yet another season we remember that we are all looking to make a difference in our own children’s lives as well as providing these basic principles to other members of our community. The goal of the Warcats coaching staff is for each player to reach their full potential as players and teammates. We welcome all players that are willing to work to make themselves and our club the best.
