I just figure that any girl playing on any team is better then her not playing anywhere. I bet if you ask the player they'll say yeah, I play. I'm not super good but I have super fun. After all, isn't it what this game is all about? Have fun, play hard, learn about yourself?!!?
DF has teams every weekend playing, NSA in Yuba and Modesto area has team every weekend and PGF is full every year with the players we will see on college fields someday. What's wrong with that?
I say keep 'e, busy and they'll get in less trouble. Besides...40 years ago plus, no one thought a girl could be a good athlete at all...good call right? hahahaa NOT These girls playing now are the women, wives, mothers, managers, leaders of tomorrow. Get 'em in the dirt and watch 'em grow! Softball is bad a&& and the players that play it are ever more bad a&& too! It has got to be one of the fastest growing sports, it's a great game!
Close your eyes and picture the last time you left a tourney. Remember that girl walking out filthy dirty, a little blood on her knee, talking to her Dad n Mom over the sound of her rolling bag grinding along the blacktop? The younger ones holding Dad's hand in the parking lot for safety. Heading to ice cream or Subway or wherever. You think those folks are talking about batting average or errors or strike outs? Nope
There is a place for every type player and a place for those that want to push up through college and those that don't. And guess what folks....that OK! In fact...that's awesome!!!!!!!!!
play ball, have fun!!!!!
