\n<\/strong>I grew up at the softball fields!! I started playing Rec ball when I was 5 years old with my older cousin. At the age of 7 I moved up to comp ball.\u00a0 I played catcher every game for the first three years.\u00a0 I loved playing catcher but wanted to try other positions. After playing the last year with Coach Gale I found my spot playing the corners and now know why I enjoy the game of softball. I\u2019ve found a love of leading my teammates to success and having fun on the Ball fields.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>My favorite memory is this last year when we went to nationals in OKC.\u00a0 My team came out to play and made it to the top 8. I was nervous at first but knew I just needed to put my heart on the field and have fun. It was a new experience not having my parents there the whole time but made me grow and know I have my softball family. I think the team bonding, making hats, team parade and getting to know each other more than we already do was a great experience for me at this age.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>The Player Recognition Program was built to recognize and spotlight our individual players in each Member League. Each month, registered Alliance Fastpitch coaches can nominate a player from their age division. League Leadership will review nominations and a monthly stats report from AthletesGoLive (AGL) to determine the League\u2019s Player of the Month.<\/p>\n
