My Project
Our team is comprised of amazing, adventurous, strong young people who are willing to embark on a new adventure for many....playing softball! We are learning to become a team as well as learning the game of softball. This will be the 3rd year of having a team and the first year that many have played on a high school team, and ever played softball.
As we start this season, our goal is to become a strong team who works together, doesn't give up, and cheers each other on.
We want to hustle, hit, and never quit!
Even when the season is over and the games are ended, we hope each player will remember the feeling of teamwork, have strong bonds with each other, and become stronger young leaders.
More than half of students from low‑income households
