Bridgeport Bombers 5th Annual Banquet
March 14, 2009 - 06:00 PM
The Bridgeport Bombers would like to announce the date of our Annual Bridgeport Bombers Banquet for March 14th, 2009 at 6pm at Delasalle. This event has grown significantly over the past few years to the point where Delasalle ran out of tables last year for people wanting to attend.
The banquet is mandatory that all players and families attend this event. However, you dont have to dance. We will have food,drink, and music for all. At the event we will announce all players and coaches to a spectacular laser, light, smoke and music show. We will announce new inductees into the "Bridgeport Bombers Hall of Fame". Speeches will be made. We will laugh and cheer!!
Our eagerly anticipated picture slideshow recapping the 2008 season(yeah I bet your smiling now)will be shown. See the actual pictures that Bridgeport cant stop talking about!! Our highly successful Split-the-Pot raffle winner will be announced this night. Tickets for this raffle will be available in January. We will have raffles, prizes, and a few other surprises to make this an event you wont want to miss. We are currently in the early stages of planning this event so additional details will be sent as we get closer. Also, if you have any ideas to make the event better please send me an email and I will pass your suggestions on to the Bridgeport Bombers Elite Executive Planning Committee.
MARK YOUR CALENDERS!!

SALUTE to the Bombers!!!
In response to the overwhelming demand for Bridgeport Bombers souveniers, we have created limited edition glassware. For those that would like to show their BRIDGEPORT BOMBER logo while having a beer, mojito, or just a glass of milk we now have the item. The glasses are $10 each and money will be used to help support the Bridgeport Bombers.
Send an email to shimmy4@sbcglobal.net with how many you would like and I will reserve them for you to pickup or I will bring them to you.
Drink up to the Bombers. These glasses when washed do SPARKLE.

New Dress Code for Bridgeport Bombers
With the policy to bring back the SPARKLE to the Bridgeport Bombers, we are designing new jereseys, pants, hats, jackets, and bats, gloves, crocs, tents, Lucky Brand Jeans, Prada shirts, and magnets. We will have custom team spikes. The board met very late last night and although the vote was close we will have a dress code for all away tournaments. We need all parents and players to go out and purchase shirts as seen in the picture above modeled by Board Member and coach Kenny Baran and Bridgeport Bombers Hall of Famer Kevin Shimkus.

Bridgeport Bombers Announce 2009 Rosters!!
September 12, 2008
With one of our biggest turnouts for tryouts in club history, we are happy to announce our 2009 rosters for the 10,12,13,and 14 year olds. The increasing popularity of the club demonstrated by the large turnout is great to see, but also difficult to deal with as we can only take a limited amount of kids for the roster. On behalf of the club, we thank all that came out. These were difficult decisions.
The coaching staff would like to welcome all new players and returning players to the BRIDGEPORT BOMBERS Family. You are about to embark on an experience that you will remember for the rest of your life. So pack your mitts, bats, swim trunks, chairs, tents, paintball guns, surf boards, sun tan lotion, baseballs, ATVs, fishing poles, grills, team pins, and coolers as the journey is about to begin. The teams assembled, based on coaches excitement and pre-season rankings, should prove to be some of our best. The staff and board members are so excited, they have planned to build an addition onto the already full trophy case. Watch for Grand Opening party details for the new trophy case!!!
