Home of the Thunder

Welcome to Thunder Road, the on-line home of the Sand Mountain Thunder baseball club.

Because the Thunder is a 9U Kid Pitch Tournament Team comprised of boys from across North Alabama, travel is part of their game. Hence the name, Thunder Road.

Here you'll find news about the team, a schedule of upcoming games, details about our latest victory, valuable information about our sponsors, and ways you can support the team. But that's not all. You can also use Thunder Road to travel to other youth baseball sites or to comment or ask questions.

Check back often as the Thunder roll through the 2008 season!!

Thunder Opens Season With Victory

Congratulations to all the boys for a very successful Winter Countdown. And for their efforts, they were awarded a team trophy as runners-up in the Silver Divsion, and many walked away with cool looking T-shirts as well.

The highlight of the tournament was certainly the 8-2 victory over the Huntsville Panthers, which was led by an outstanding pitching performance, some timely hitting, and a couple of nifty plays in the field.


Unfortunately, after a close 5-4 loss on the last play of the second game against the Arab Knights, the competitive edge was somewhat dulled by a nearly 4-hour wait before the final game against the Central Colts.


Still, the Thunder showed some good baseball skill (especially for early March), got their first win, and Ms. Stacy got to utilize her long-distance radio commentating skills.
