Recommended: Importance of teamwork in sports

When someone asks you what you are thankful for, you probably respond with an answer like your family or good health. But when I am asked I don’t hesitate but say softball. I am thankful for the opportunity to play this amazing sport and enjoy it with my friends.
I love my teammates. They are always there to pick me up and help me achieve my goals. My team is like another family and I couldn’t ask for anyone different. They make me laugh and smile when I get down and are always there to back me up. We all play our own rolls to help the team achieve wonderful things and that is one of the many reasons I am thankful for softball.
Softball is a sport where there are many personal achievements. The effort you put into practice pays off both positively

    I have been playing softball ever since the tee ball days. It has been a sport that I have grown to love and couldn’t imagine not playing. The way I have grown up playing softball has changed tremendously from the time it was first created in 1887 on Thanksgiving Day. The first time this game was even thought of was when a group of excited men threw a boxing glove at another man who swung a broom trying to hit the boxing glove, like a bat hitting a ball. This group of men, who were all apart of the Farragut boat club, decided they would turn this into a game of their own and softball was born.

    I tried out and made my highschool team. While playing on my highschool team I joined a travel team for the Brooklyn Cyclones while still playing for my church’s high school team. My passion for softball could not be taken away from me. Even when I failed, I did not give up on my dream. Giving up on my dream of being successful in softball would be equivalent to letting down my past self who was just a little girl who fell in love with softball. Playing softball was my parents way of wearing me out, but it was my way of getting away from the problems of the real world and into a world of my own. Between two white chalk lines nothing else mattered, but playing the game I fell in love with when I was only ten years old. On the field, I was able to feel pure bliss. Playing softball for seven years has not only given me joy, but it has also taught me life skills that I use from day to day. I learned to work as a team to achieve a common goal, to communicate with others better, I have learned to cherish my wins while accepting my losses and I have learned no matter what happens in life, you always have to put your heart and soul into everything you
