Throw Like a Girl
Throw Like a Girl | Jennie Finch
3 posts | 3 read | 1 to read
The evidence is overwhelming: sports help girls grow into strong women. Both scientific studies and anecdotal evidence confirm that athletic girls not only grow up to be healthier; they learn teamwork, gain inner confidence, and grow into society's leaders. Sports help preteen and teenage girls make the right choices in a society that is sending them incredibly mixed messages about who they are supposed to be. Yet no one is speaking directly to these girls. Jennie fills the role of girlfriend, big sister, team captain, and mentor. A smart, credible, and accomplished voice from an athlete who is strong and feminine, fiercely competitive, and fashionably cool, Jennie is someone young women will listen to and take to heart. Jennie's message: Believe in yourself. Go for it, girls.

Yesterday was World Softball Day, so I just wanted to share with you guys the collage that I posted to my girls from my high school team. These are from my senior year, and I'm the one on the far right in the top picture, and the bottom left in the group (I almost always played in two braids). My senior year was my last fastpitch year, as I had to turn down my scholarship, but I played for 13 years & loved every one!

A family on our softball team lost their son in February. He was full term, but his eyes never got to open outside of his mother's womb. Tonight was our first game and we were able to present these decals for our helmets and dedicate our season to their sweet son! Tears for days! ❤ #softballfamily #love #stuffstoriesaremadeoutof #softballmom
