2002 was one of our best college recruiting years, with 5 players receiving Division I scholarships, and 5 players going on to Division II universities and community colleges on scholarship. Since then we have continued our run of placing our players in top NCAA and NJCAA schools on scholarship to continue playing fastpitch softball at the highest level.





An updated Gainesville Gold Uniform Standard for the 2009 seasonal year has been published. There is the original uniform, with two additional approved tops, with standards set for the bottoms and socks.

All uniform orders MUST are placed through the team Head Coach.
