There was little shake-up in the team roster for 2008. A veteran team changed ownership and name again, another longtime veteran returned and two rookies joined the mix. That left the TSFA with 13 teams again and the post season ended with the 4th straight all-star game. 2009 also marked the first ever TSFA night games with the Epler Cup and All-Star games being played under the lights at The Winston School.
