Clair’s first softball game ball

Game 1 for the Win and first game ball for Clair! 

We had our first 10 u softball game of the season. I love coaching, even when we don’t come out on top.  But the absolute best is watching my girl with a clutch move on the field. She played heads up defense but that’s not why she got the game ball. Her concentration tonight was amazing. 

Bottom of the last inning, bases loaded, and clutch double from my girl to win the game for her team. She has proven over her young life that when it comes to sports, she is great under pressure. I’m reminded of how well she did as a goalie in travel soccer. 

Everyone was so excited! No pictures from the actual even as usual, because I’m busy coaching 🙂. 

When I gave her the game ball she was a little embarrassed due to all the attention, but she was also very proud of herself. I am so proud of her! 

I am also proud of all the girls tonight. They are the come back girls. They like to wait until the end of the game to use their bats. I hope to help them stop waiting until the later innings and get the bats moving early. It’s early in the season so I believe it’s possible. 



What’s the reward for such a great game? A McFlurry of course!
