Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, especially our longtime assistant coach, Simon Walters! 💙

Simon joined the Miners as a hitting coach in 2017 before being promoted to his current position of assistant coach. For the past eight seasons, he’s been an integral part of the team’s culture and is the glue that holds the club together. His championship pedigree and steady demeanor have brought strong leadership and stability to the organization. Alongside manager Bobby Jones, Simon helped guide the Miners to their first championship in the magical 2018 Can-Am League season.

At skylandsstadium, Simon can be seen in his familiar #5, patrolling foul ground as our third-base coach and congratulating players as they round the bases.

Simon resides in Coral Springs, Florida, with his high school sweetheart and wife of 22 years, Fabiana. Their two sons, Haiden (21) and Easton (12), followed in their father’s footsteps and served the Miners as batboys. 

Haiden was a Miners batboy from 2018 until 2020. He recently completed his junior year with the felician_university Golden Falcons in Rutherford, NJ, and was selected onto the 2025 cacc_athletics Baseball All-Conference First Team. This season, felicianbaseball completed the most successful campaign in program history and competed in the 2025 ncaadii College World Series in Cary, North Carolina. The Super Regional championship was the first in school history.

Easton has been a Miners batboy for the last three seasons. He just completed his baseball season, and his team won a championship.

Please wish Simon and all the dads a very happy Father’s Day!
