Coaches Report

Dear Players,
Just a few thoughts about our softball team. I confidently speak on behalf of the entire coaching staff. I start by expressing my sincere appreciation of having this opportunity to coach and manage our softball team. I appreciate your trust and confidence and it is gratifying for all of us to help you to progress and move towards your competitive goals. It's nice to see that you enjoy doing it together, selfless and accepting of each other. I am grateful for our competent staff, trusted advisors and each and every fabulous family involved. As players, teammates and students of the game, your enthusiasm and respect is awesome. Our growth, maturity and competitiveness over our first ever, 3 tournaments is quite notable.  You have shown on many occasions, your ability to "put it all together." We've also made some mistakes and learned and progress from them.  Looking ahead towards the next level, competition will get stiffer and the next hill to climb will get steeper.
Our continued focus and belief is that consistent and effective hitting is the key to our future success as players, and as a team. You win games by scoring runs, and you score runs by hitting the ball, getting on base and moving runners across the plate. Hitting also allows us to overcome defensive shortcomings which are bound to occur, although less frequently over time. As coaches we will continue to focus on assessing and addressing your hitting strengths and weaknesses. As players you are expected to reinforce and work on your hitting game on your own. Consistent daily practice on you own, is the only way you will get better, improve, and make greater contributions to our team effort.
