I have played softball since I was eight.

Softball made me all my friends, gave me great role models,

and taught me how to be responsible.

I have grown up playing the game.

I have grown up holding a bat in my hand.

I have grown up spending my weekends at the ballfield instead of the mall.

It has shown me the importance of having friends and working as a team.

My teammates have become some of my bestfriends and I am so glad I met them.

My coach has become a an amazing role model and someone I can rely on.

Softball has taught me so many lessons over the years and for that I am grateful.
