Front PageMom shares hard truths for travel ball parents who think their kids will get a sports scholarship
John Gordon 📷More photos from the game (iPhone shots). Hoping some of the ones from the R7 are going to be good.
Apparently we’re playing softball in this. Can barely see the edge of the infield.
Mom's divisive comments highlight the 'unfair' part of having kids who travel for sports

We watched the PGF 12U Premier division championship game on YouTube. An Alabama team vs a Texas team.
The Alabama team had players who live in Louisiana and Tennessee, and some from Alabama were hundreds of miles from where the team plays. At 12-13 years old. One kid traveled 7 hours every weekend to play with the team. There is something wrong with how this works if 12U teams have 500 mile radius recruiting areas.
I5. Over 4 hours to go. Heading to Huntington Beach / Irvine for the PGF Nationals week.
My daughter’s team is playing softball in Turlock this weekend. Starting Saturday just after noon. Going to be a hot weekend!
John Gordon 📷Really windy here today and it’s kicking up the dust badly.

While not my preferred genre, I have been taking softball photos for my daughter’s team. This weekend we stopped by one of her friend’s games and I snapped some shots through the fence in the golden hour. (Normally my shots are from the field side of the fence in the harsh midday sun or looking directly into the rising sun 😢).
This catcher with her bright yellow gear stood out in the golden light and I snapped quite a few photos of her. I’ve not seen the yellow gear before, but I like it!

Strange start to today with a loss for the team and two uncharacteristic strike outs for my daughter (she only had 2 in the whole of the last season). Then she pulls off an in the park home run in the third game. Team ended day 1 with 2 wins, 1 loss ranking us 2nd in our pool. Championship games tomorrow…
