Frank has been selected to participate in the prestigious New Balance Future Stars Series Underclass Combine in Nashville, TN. He needs your help to make this dream a reality. The players are not charged a fee to participate but instead get the opportunity to raise funds for Future Stars Series Foundation and No Kid Hungry. The players have a chance to earn stipends towards their expenses just by helping raise money for these great causes.
Meet Frank: Frank Mercante III is 14 years old and plays baseball, and his primary position is catcher. He lives in Spanish Fort, AL and attends Bayshore Christian School. Frank's goal in baseball is to make it to the MLB one day. He has played baseball for 10 years now and it has been a blessing. He likes to fish, hangout with friends, and workout.
Frank shares his favorite baseball memory: "My favorite baseball memory is when I hit my first homerun in Panama City Beach, when I was 12. I hit it off of a kid I used to be best friends with. A couple of weeks later, I hit my second homerun over 300 ft."
Frank also shares what attending the NBFSS Underclass Combine means to him: "Attending this event is amazing. I am honored to have been invited and I hope I can represent my family, Coastal Sports Academy, Bayshore Christian School, and most importantly, God well. I look forward to competing with everyone from around the country!"
