Softball season

Claire decided to play softball again this spring, it was going to be a challenge with the end of basketball season and with Grant playing t-ball.  They ended up needing an assistant coach for her team so Danny volunteered.  Claire was on the Royals this year and she was thrilled with the uniforms for her team.  I also got her a big softball bow for her hair but Danny said it interfered with her batting helmet.  Claire was much more excited about the season this year, I think because she knew more what to expect.  She also ended up having someone on her team that we knew from swim team. 





She practiced hitting a lot and definitely got better this season.  



Danny got to do a lot of coach pitch.





A happy hitter!



She got this ground ball and made the play at first.  It was really awesome!




She also wanted to try pitching.  There are probably only a few girls in the league that are decent at pitching, but everyone wants to try including Claire.





At the very end of the season she also tried being catcher.  I think that would be scary but she liked it.  She is going to play in the fall again.  She really made a lot of progress this season.
