MASH Softball Official Account of MASH Softball. 🥎🔔 - Our Story -

MASH was built from the ground up. No shortcuts.

Just plain hard work and dedication over the last decade. We believe sports create enormous impact through relationships, community, and transparency. Everything we do begins with how we best serve members of our community. This takes transparency and unwavering support from our staff. Done consistently over time, we have created a following that understands our collective mission and values. Star

ted in 2012 to provide athletes a home to develop both on and off the field, MASH has matured to focus on all aspects of athletic and human development. Our commitment to Raise the Standard in Human Performance is accomplished by valuing leadership, consistency, self-awareness, independence, and confidence within our community and by promoting a growth mindset, critical thinking, and an actions over words approach.


- OUR VALUES -

Growth Minded: Our original mission was “to create a community inspiring growth.” We cannot impact the growth of others unless we are consistently asking and challenging ourselves to improve. This mindset has been the backbone of our culture and community since our inception in 2012. Critical Thinking & Solution Oriented: We as humans face challenges every day. Especially in sports, performance is dynamic and evaluated, sometimes by the minute. We continually strive to create solutions to near-term problems for long-term results. Default to Action: People doubt what you say, but believe what you do. We must prove our value every day and we do this through continuous action to lead, serve and compete.

The bench might be one of the most taken-for-granted places in softball and here is why...

For starters, nobody wants to be there. Every player wants to be in the lineup. You want the at-bats. You want the ball hit to you. You want to be the one in the circle, the one coming up with runners in scoring position, the one your teammates are waiting for at home plate.

But someday, when softball is over, you might realize the bench gave you something the field never could.

A chance to actually take in the game.

When you're playing, everything moves fast.

You're thinking about the count. The runner. The signs. Your positioning. Your last at-bat. Your next pitch. Whether you're covering. Where you're going with the ball if it comes to you.

You're inside the game.

But when you're sitting on the bench, even if it's only for a few innings, you're allowed to see it from the outside.

You notice the pitcher working through an inning.

You hear the conversations between coaches.

You watch hitters make adjustments.

You see how an infielder shifts with the situation.

You notice the runner timing her jump.

You hear the dugout getting louder with two strikes.

You hear the cleats on the concrete.

You hear the snap of the glove in the bullpen.

You hear teammates laughing about something that has absolutely nothing to do with softball.

And for once, the game slows down. That's the part we don't appreciate enough.

Because softball isn't going to last forever.

There will eventually be a day when you'd give almost anything to sit in that dugout one more time.

To lean against the fence with your teammates.

To smell the dirt and grass.

To hear someone yell, "Ball in!"

To watch your teammate fight through a long at-bat.

To pick her up after a strikeout.

To celebrate a run.

To lose your mind when someone comes through with two outs.

To argue about whether that outside pitch was actually a strike.

To know that at any moment your coach might turn around and call your name.

The bench can feel like the place where you're waiting for softball to happen to you.

But maybe it's actually one of the few places where you get to completely experience softball happening around you.

That doesn't mean you should be satisfied with sitting there.

Compete. Work. Earn your opportunity. Want to be on the field.

But don't spend every inning on the bench wishing you were somewhere else.

Look around every once in a while.

Watch the game.

Talk to your teammates.

Learn something.

Laugh.

Be loud.

Take it in.

Because one day, nobody is going to tell you to grab a helmet.

Nobody is going to ask if you're ready to pinch hit.

Nobody is going to yell down the dugout looking for someone to warm up.

Nobody is going to tell you that you're on deck.

The game will keep being played. You just won't be sitting there anymore.

And that's when you'll realize:

The bench wasn't time you were losing, it was part of the game you were lucky enough to play. 🥎❤️

Lead by our Director Kayla Hatting - Winter teams are a great opportunity to develop at MASH! 🥎🙌

What should youth softball development actually look like? For us, it’s more than running drills.

Young athletes need opportunities to make decisions, compete, learn the game, make mistakes and receive coaching that helps them understand the “why” behind what they’re doing.

That’s the environment we created the MASH Softball Development Program!

Designed for 8U–12U athletes, the program combines 12 weeks of game-like development with individualized Total Player training in hitting, pitching, catching or fielding.

More reps are great. Better reps with a purpose are even better. 🥎
