Summer Softcore Kickball in Fremont T/Th

Amy not only brought an exemplary attitude to the field, but also her "A" game.

On two separate occasions Amy hauled in monster kicks to the outfield in clutch situations to kill her opponents rally.

Thanks for putting on a catching clinic Amy and keeping the focus on fun!

This weeks player of the week goes to Dawn S. for her huge contributions in a 2 win night for her squad. Dawn kick the bleep out of the ball early on and ran the bases like a champ until she hurt her hamstring. Most ballers would hit the showers but Dawn pressed on for the love of the game and was a key component in the multiple win evening. Dawn camped out at first base reeling in throws and making outs all on one good limb. Dawn also never skipped her turn in the line-up and even with her slow saunter down to first she kicked well of 500% and knocked in key runs, esp the second game that went 8 innings. Dawn was the backbone of her squad on this night, and she will be taking her talents back to Hawaii where she is from to rest up and get her legs back to normal then perhaps find a league in the future where she can shine once again. Great game Dawn, your team is going to miss you!

George really earned his nickname of "Daddy Long Legs" in both games of his teams' doubleheader victories.

He loosened up in the first game, nearly doing the splits while attempting a running catch in the outfield. After that, he moved to 1st base and was key in keeping the opposition of the bases with his super-stretch and catch strategy (it did look painful!)

Game 2 was more of the same...some nice kicks in play down the foul lines, running all over the outfield to make catches, and in the final critical inning, making superb outs with his stretch at first to snub the KPG 7th inning rally.

Kristina led her team in game 1 of their doubleheader with voracious play on both sides of the ball. On defense, her play at 2nd was unmatched as she caught mile high pop-ups and line drives with ease while also making key force outs. On offense she came across the plate to score three runs and had great bunts including an rbi.

She kept up the heady play in game 2 with another run and rbi and was just as awesome again on defense with several catches and put outs. She kept a smile on her face even as her team fell short of making it a sweep. Way to play Kristina!!!

Ben makes huge kicks every time and always on the first pitch. In the first game he kicked a 3 run homer and had a great catch with the bases load to end a big rally by Aces.

He continued with his monster kicks in the championship game with another 3 run homer and several runs scored. He made some great defensive plays but remembered best the one he couldn't quite make and his team fell short in the bottom of the 7th.
