Cedar Rapids Blue Devils

14U Full Year

While getting a grasp for discipline and responsibility on the softball field, our 14u Full Year team continue to develop their throwing, sliding, hitting and base-running skills. Understanding how important each and every practice is, these players start to comprehend what it takes to build an attitude of winning. A continued focus on in-game thinking skills and introductions to more advanced techniques expand their softball mind.

Once I step on that field all my stress, problems and heartaches go away, because on that field I know I have 10 sisters to cheer me on.

Softball is not a one woman sport. You have to have faith in the eight other girls on the field, because you win as a team and you lose as a team.

Softball was invented to show the boys how it's done.

What I like best about being a Blue Devil: The Friends that I have made. The encouragement they give me, and push me to do and be better. The Coaches help me to learn and teach me to fix my errors.
