Spring is just around the corner…. flowers will soon be blooming, grass will start to grow, trees will bud. But in our house, all that matters is the clay around the bases.
yup, its softball season again, and Abbie’s up to bat. Its a fun transformation, suddenly, she doesn’t care if her hair gets messed up, or if her nails are painted… sweat can run freely… as long as she gets to swing that bat.
Her team this year is the Cohutta Drillers. It consists of only 9 girls this year. Which is odd because last year we had so many they were fighting about who was going to bat, oops, that was the parents, not the girls. =) It is going to be a great year, there are 10 year olds that are able to throw with ease from 3rd to 1st base. A pitcher that appears to understand the concept of fast pitch and a remarkable coach. We’re excited, and will keep you posted.
“Take me out to the ball game….. take me out to the crowd….”
We LOVE the ball fields! My Hubby coaches our 7 yr olds team & it is awesome to go watch them play. He had also coached our now 16 yr old from the time he began until he started playing school ball. And we ‘used’ to play co-ed ball (until we got too busy with the boys…lol)
Have a great season…I will watch for updates! Tell your daughter ‘good luck & play hard….and most importantly-have fun!’
