At its very simplest, baseball/softball is a game that is played by boys and girls in backyards, parks, playgrounds, and sandlots. It is a time to be outdoors and spend with friends – old and new, an opportunity to be part of a team, and experience the highs of winning and the agony of defeat. This is what childhood is about – to play, be carefree, and just have a chance to a kid. In addition to its pure play element, the is also a powerful vehicle for youth development teaching important life lessons like teamwork, respect, keeping a commitment, and the art of winning and losing. It also helps build self-confidence, offers a constructive alternative for the key after-school hours, and gives kids positive role models in their coaches. It is a game that brings communities together - unifying people from different backgrounds, religions, ethnic groups, and socioeconomics as well as offering parents a way to connect with their kids.
