GreenJackets announce “Augusta Azaleas” alternate identity

NORTH AUGUSTA, S.C. (WJBF) – The Augusta GreenJackets, the Single-A Affiliate of the Atlanta Braves, announced on Friday a brand new on-field identity coming to SRP Park in 2025: the Augusta Azaleas.

In a news release, the team announed that it will be “continuing the GreenJackets’ tradition of paying homage to the CSRA staples that gain national recognition every April. These alternate uniforms prominently feature the flowers and pink hues that are so prevalent in Augusta and around the region this time of year. To bring the Augusta Azaleas to life, local CSRA artist, Jason Craig, was brought on to design the look of the logo and jerseys. The ‘Jackets will wear these uniforms for two home games, on April 18th and 19th against the Myrtle Beach Pelicans.”

“We could not be more thrilled to showcase the Augusta Azaleas at SRP Park this year,” said GreenJackets General Manager Brandon Greene. “Nothing captures the beauty and serenity of springtime in Augusta like the azalea flower, and we can’t wait for GreenJackets fans to see these jerseys on the field.”

The first 1,000 fans through the gates receive an Augusta Azaleas blanket. Fans 21 and older can also enjoy half-off select drafts at the Keg Stand and sample the Durty Gurl Vodka Bar’s half-priced specialty cocktail of the night, a Blueberry Lemonade featuring vodka, blueberry syrup and lemonade.

Saturday’s festivities to end the Augusta Azaleas weekend will kick-off with pre-game music from Jaycie Ward. Fans can also meet some of their favorite Azaleas players and bid on select game-worn, autographed Azaleas jerseys. Several Azaleas jerseys will be available online for auction, as well. The evening will culminate in a post-game fireworks show.

Augusta Azaleas merchandise is available both in-person at the Hive Pro Shop at SRP Park, and online at www.hiveproshop.com. Offerings include both men’s and women’s t-shirts, fitted snapbacks, and adjustable caps in the Azaleas’ pink and green colors. 

Friday’s game begins at 7:05 PM, with gates opening at SRP Park at 6:00 PM. Saturday is a 6:05 start, with fans able to enter the stadium at 4:30 PM. The two games are part of a 6-game series against the Myrtle Beach Pelicans out of the Cubs’ organization, marking the only time this season the Pelicans come to North Augusta.
