If you are looking for a sport for your daughter which guarantees smiles, accomplishment, and self esteem:
Be inspired.The rules of the game haven’t changed much since you played ball in a back lot or a distant farmer’s grassy field.
Be cheerful. The parents still yell for their favorite player, and the sun still shines on America’s favorite pasttime.
Be proud. There are still hotdogs to gobble up, and the elation you will feel watching your daughter make a throw to first base — can never be captured on even the best video camera.
Be mindful. Our first priority, and in many respects, our ONLY priority is your daughter’s safety and well-being. But there are things to learn. And life must be experienced (with the proper safety equipment) to be appreciated. We are here to help.
Be giving. We are an organization of people. We want the same things for our children that you want for yours. Join us and meet good people who are working together to make life grand! We appreciate our volunteers as much as our umpires and coaches.
Be loyal. Maybe you were once a player, but today, you are a parent — a fan of the best, most important player since Babe Ruth: your daughter.
Be watchful. The bases will load up. The score will be tied. The crowd will be silent. And your daughter will be the one who comes up to bat. We guarantee excitement!
The Coppell Girls Softball Association extends an invitation to you to become part of the fun. We are here for your daughter. We are here for you.
