NOOSA SOFTBALL
TWO weeks down and the competition is growing and taking shape, but the club still needs a few new players in the Under 15 and Under 13 age group to solidify numbers in the teams.
It was another great day at Noosa on Saturday with the T-ball and 15s kicking off the day, followed by 13s and 17s while the seniors finished the day off.
Brax showed in T-ball that he has his father’s passion and drive turning training into a competition.
The 15s have a new group who travel up from Buderim and they all showed they could play, bringing a much needed competitive edge to the games.
The 13s also did not let the club down and Rebecca had a good debut, hit a home run, pitched well and took a catch – not a bad first up effort. It was good to see the kids going to different positions every innings and enjoying the game.
The 17s continued to do their development games and you can already see the improvement of the younger ones as the older group help them.
The seniors followed and as usual there were many laughs, Brett Gavin showed good reflexes on the mound not to be killed twice, while Mandy showed Clint how to take a catch in the outfield, but the best was Ethan backing up in the outfield, and as the player in front completely missed the ball, it went straight into his glove, pure reflex to hold onto it. Play is from 8.30am for juniors and from 1pm for seniors, so if you are interested come down and have a look.
Training is held Monday to Thursday from 4pm and all are welcome any night.
