Since I was 7 years old‚ I have always participated in Greenwich’s very own Cardinal Baseball Camp. However‚ until last summer‚ I had always been one of the campers. This year I was an official volunteer of the camp. Everyday from 8 a.m. till 12 p.m.‚ me and approximately 30 other staff members at the camp would teach young kids how to play baseball. This camp is run very locally‚ and it is very personalized‚ something that should truly be valued in a large town like Greenwich. Although not

Often time it feels like life is like trying to hit a home-run off a knuckle ball. When this happens‚ When life throws us something unexpected we must learn to adapt and respond appropriately.. I learned this when first entering choir as a sophomore with the firm notion that being a bold and strong leader was always the best

Before I was first playing baseball I wasn’t very good and didn’t understand it‚ I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I played t-ball and parent pitch and it was very fun‚ I could never really hit‚ but I could field pretty well‚ and I was always better than my peers. My parents loved baseball and were always very encouraging of how I played baseball‚ and how bad I was. Once I turned an unassisted triple play‚ Which means that I got 3 outs all by myself‚ In the same play to end

This is an event of a group of brave young men who won a baseball championship‚ two days of grueling hot weather‚ the ability to fight through injuries‚ and the satisfaction of winning the championship. The two days were tough hot and grueling‚ how did the boys pull it off? Many injuries on the team but no setbacks. The satisfaction was worth all the pain and fight they put in together. This is the story of me and my baseball team and how every single one of us showed the unwillingness to not lose

The Game of Baseball For as long as I can remember there has always been one thing in my head that I can’t get rid of. As hard as I try to get this object out of my head I always end up falling back to it. This object that defines me is a baseball. Baseball has been part of my life for 15 years now and has helped me become the person that I am today. By starting so young it has made me appreciate this sport much more than I ever thought I would. I have gotten the chance to play past high school and

Baseball has been part of my life since I was five years old. From ages eight through sixteen‚ I was a national level player who traveled to wide range of states to playcompetitively in tournaments. To this point‚ when I look at Major League baseball rosters‚ it isn’t out of the ordinary for me to be able to read names of players I have competed against. Needless to say‚ I knew baseball and was good at it. Maybe not good enough to play in the Major League‚ but I was good enough to play competitively

Laurel high school has been the most glamorous of places to play baseball. The grass was scarce‚ dominated from large patches of dirt scattered across the outfield. Our batting cage left untouched for months at a time‚ creating a chest high jungle of weeds that consumed you as you entered. There were no perks of playing for the baseball program. The athletic director ignored us‚ the students didn’t support us‚ and the School wouldn’t adequately fund us. All we had were ourselves and an insatiable

Title Baseball season is the most exciting time of the year! It is warm out‚ people are cooking burgers‚ and chewing sunflower seeds‚ there is nothing better! You can imagine my disappointment when I had to miss almost the entire first part of the season. There is nothing better than playing with a team that loves baseball as much as you do. When I was cleared to play in the playoffs in Rapid City‚ I was ecstatic. I was also really anxious to get my first game out of the way. I had already missed
