“Through my experiences as a player, coach, volunteer, board member, and now sport administrator, I can truly see the tremendous positive impact that being involved in sports in general and softball in particular can have on individuals and society. Not only can softball encourage an active, healthy lifestyle, but it teaches so many important life skills that can be taken from the ball diamond and applied to everyday life.”
