Mothers Day Tournament 2009



“ And an Inspiration from Above”
.
Congratulations Diane and Jason for Hosting the 12u Mothers Day Tournament and having a huge successful fastpitch weekend. You're an inspirational Fastpitch Family (Kasners) that really dedicated your time, understanding and loyalty to your Acers 12u Team and their families. The Acer Parents provided such great enthusiasm and worked the tournament well together as a team.It was a pleasure to have been a guest instead of a coach or trainer and I was able to just enjoy the game, the parents and players, coaches and tournament officials. Most of all what I valued as Fastpitch Coach, I learned how a "Class-Act" Tournament should be directed and properly hosted with a respectful tournament theme "Mothers Day" where all the ladies received flowers on their special day. On a sad note, that provided inspiration to one of your players whose mother not present due to a recent tragedy, the young player obviously dedicated her heart and mind to do her best. After some outstanding RBI Slap Hits in key situations, it was awesome how this player turned sorrow into a challenge then used that to motivate her to do her best. That was evident by the tears I had running down my face and few other parents did too. I know her mother was smiling down on her from up above.Personally, I made some new fastpitch friends, got to know some of the Acer's Parents, enjoyed some delicious BBQ and met some Canadian Participants and Coaches that impressed me with the Canadian style of playing which seemed similar to baseball.The many teams present at the tournament seemed to really get along and make for a competitive environment and level playing field. Any team would have won the tournament because of the fantastic weather and scheduling times, great officiating, and overall characteristics the weekend provided and set the tone for all to compete for a championship.By the way the Infield Maintenance Crews were prompt and kept the fields in a safe, game-ready playing conditions.All my best to your Team! - Coach Adam
