Getting better one swing at a time

Every Monday I teach hitting at the FSU batting cages. It has been a great experience to work with the young ladies that come out to the camp. I have seen the girls become better hitters and enjoy the game of softball so much more. As much as I am teaching these ladies about softball and hitting, they are actually teaching me and allowing me to work on my coaching. They bring back great memories of when I was their age playing softball and how I was so eager to learn more about the game. I remember how hard I had to work and that nothing was easy when it came to learning about hitting. We have one more session of our hitting boot camp and I am excited to see these girls play in the fall and use their new abilities in games.  I love seeing them smile when their swing finally comes together and they get one solid hit after the other. I am so proud of these girls and the 2 hours of work they put in every Monday and throughout the week. This is why I love coaching because these girls teach me more about life and what its like to love the game all over again. I love to see them get better one swing at a time.
