I´ve been trying to hit a round ball with a round bat since I´ve been able to walk, which means that I´ve been on the diamond for...uh...a lot of years. Being a guy, I grew up playing baseball and played it through high school. Once it became clear that I wasn´t going to make the big leagues (or even come close to even thinking about it), I transitioned to playing adult slow-pitch softball, and for the past 6 years have been a member of a local co-ed team called "Lookin´ for a Good Time". True to our name, we have fun -- good thing our name isn´t "Lookin´ for a Few Wins" because then we wouldn´t be living up to our name!
My true love is coaching kids. I´ve coached Karate, Soccer, and Baseball, but I´ve fallen head-over-heels in love with the sport of Fastpitch Softball. I like that the sport is different enough from baseball that I have to keep learning about it. I´ve definitely found my home in the sports world.
BellaOnline´s Softball site will try to cover all areas of the softball world, but I´ll spend most of my time concentrating on Fastpitch Softball, from Rec leagues to Pros and the Olympics. I aim to provide relatively short, concise articles that will give you the reader what you need quickly. That way we can both spend more time out on the fields!!
I also hope to combine softball with one of my other great passions: math and statistics. I promise I´ll keep it fun, though!
