Hit The Books

The Biloxi Shuckers have partnered with Chevron to bring the Hit the Books Reading Program to local schools.

To participate in the Hit the Books Reading Program, students are asked to read six books at a grade level designated by their teacher or librarian. When their goal is hit, the student will receive a free ticket to a select Biloxi Shuckers game!

The goal of this program is to stimulate interest in reading and increase literacy in students. In 2022, over 11,000 students participated in the Hit the Books Reading Program.

Students in Kindergarten through 8th grade are eligible to participate in the Hit the Books Reading Program.

If your school is interested in participating or you have any questions about the program, please contact David Blackwell at
