⚾️ TEAMMATES. FRIENDS. COMPETITORS. ⚾️
This morning, four Coastal Fury teammates got the chance to battle against each other, and I absolutely love seeing it.
For a few hours, they may have been wearing different jerseys and standing in opposite dugouts, but at the end of the day, they’re still friends, teammates, and kids who love this game.
Win or lose. Home run or strikeout. Great game or an off game. None of that changes how proud I am of these four.
Cora. Sawyer. Cole. Fitz.
Every one of you earned your spot. You received an invitation, accepted the challenge, and you showed up to play. You represented yourselves, your families, your teams, and Coastal Fury.
Baseball will give you incredible days, and baseball will humble you five minutes later. That’s the game. What matters is how you carry yourself through both.
Attitude reflects leadership.
How you respond when things don’t go your way matters. How you treat your teammates matters. How you treat the kid in the other dugout matters. How you compete, shake hands, smile with your friends afterward, and come back ready for the next opportunity matters.
Watching four kids who normally stand beside one another get the chance to compete against each other today was pretty dang cool.
Keep competing. Keep supporting each other. Keep having fun. Keep earning opportunities.
Whether you went yard today or had a game you’d rather forget, Coach is proud of all four of you.
You competed. You represented. And you showed exactly why you earned the opportunity to be there.
Way to represent, Cora, Sawyer, Cole, and Fitz! ⚾️🔥
