Hi, I am entering my Sr. in HS-@ Lake Stevens HS, our school ball season is March-June, and I have played SB since I was 5.

I am currently on a travel ASA team in the State of Wa. called the Washington Lady Hawks- gold. We have just returned from Gold Nationals, in Salinas, Ca. where our team placed 13th in the Nation. I have not committed to a college or university as of yet. I plan to continue to play SB once I graduate from HS at the college level or internationally, if the opportunity presents itself to me.

Our team is currently gearing up for fall ball and several college exposure tournements in several states prior to winter break. I play 1st, 3rd, and O/F, and usually bat 4-6 in our line up.

If you are interested in any further information on myself, pls visit our teams website or e-mail me back and will be glad to talk to you.
Softball (diamonds) are a girls best friend!!!!

Hi my name is Cayla I am a high school graduate 2005. I am now in my first week of community college in Indiana. I am studying to be a teacher and a softball coach. I love the game and have played since I was 5 years old. I am looking for a team to play on. I pitch [ and have been coached] catcher and 3rd base. I played on the middle school and high school teams. Softball is my passion and my college does not have a team. Someone please e mail me if they know of a team I could play on!!

I am a Certified Clinician with ISF. I have spent eight months the last two years in the Republic of Turkey giving clinics and official governmental courses all over the country. I have extensively (over 40 years) softball background as a player, coach and manager in the Southern California area. My experienced has been primarily on the woman’s side with travel ball and high school teams. I am very interested in coaching at whatever level (beginner, intermediate or elite) and I would love to be a national coach. I have the ability to judge, evalutate and develop talent. I am fully retired and willing to stay for extended periods of time. I have a BA in Business Administration and a Masters in Public Administration. My daughter is a Pitching Instrutor who has her own "pitching academy".
