It's not just any sport, it's not just throwing a ball, hitting and running._ I live with the cheering of my players while I'm up to bat. I live with the red stitches of the softball rubbing against my fingers when I snap my wrist and let it fly._ I live with mistakes every day in it, and I live learning them._ I live on the pitchers mound where I need complete confidence in my self._ I live with snapping my wrist to the catcher and getting the batter out, a perfect strike._ I live not only for my teammates, but for my self._ I live for fastpitch softball. K.M

Realize this: We aren't going to be perfect with our outcomes/results, in this game of failure we call softball. However, every time you are in a pressure situation it's a chance to prove that you're in the 'perfect' frame of mind. The 'success' and 'failure' comes from being in the right frame of mind and giving yourself a_chance to have success when the big moment comes; it doesn't always necessarily come with the outcome, despite what all eyes watching might think. Results will come once the frame of mind has been altered. Amanda Scarborough

That's part of fast pitch softball, being able to move runners and execute the short game. _It's a very quick game. _Sixty feet, you bobble it once, and these kids are going to be safe. You have to play quick, but you can't be in a hurry. John Rittman

Everybody knows that pitching and defense win championships. It's all about defense. _It's that way in pretty much every sport. So if we can pitch and play defense we have a chance at a championship. _But you can also win quite a few games by hitting. Ehren Earleywine

One of the most awesome things about sports, particularly team sports, is that everything you need to do to be successful on the playing field carries over directly into life._ In a team sport you have to learn how to work together, to set goals, and then work toward those goals in a productive way._ You learn to be responsible and you learn how to not only depend on others, but also be independent so you can support others. Sheila Cornell Douty

Softball player- a girl who, once steps onto the field, is transformed from daddy's-little-girl_into a fierce, unrelenting competitor who will stop at nothing in order to win a game. Characteristically_with dirt all across her face, ratted sweaty hair, bloody knees, and dirt stained socks and uniform. She's diligent hard worker who knows the real meaning of teamwork, spirit, and fearing nothing. Contradictorily she personifies all of this while she still wears cute, color coordinated hair ribbons and sleeve straps. Anonymous
