Happy Birthday Cindy! We take 2nd!

This past Saturday at Johnson Park in Conyers was pretty but the wind kept it chilly most of the day until evening fell. We started off with a win against the E team, Half & Half, 8-5 (having spot them 4 runs).


We passed the pre-game bat inspection and went on to win the next two games to lead us to the winner's bracket game against the C team, Crossfire. We suffered our first loss of the day, losing 22-15 (after they spot us 4).


We won the next game against the D team, Ballbusters, to come back and face Crossfire again in the Championship game. We led the game until the 6th inning, when a combination of some fielding errors and good hits from the other team, led us to take second place overall, 16-8 (after the 4 spot).


 Zoe took first in the number of RBI's. Jackie & Kate each hit an in-the-park homerun! All in all, everyone did an awesome job! We also had some great laughs at some funny bloopers too!


 We celebrated Cindy's birthday during a break at Buffalo Wild Wings with some colorful cupcakes. Cindy loved them so much she decided to wear them too! Lol. Happy Birthday C-Ho!


We would like to thank Jackie, Nikki, Kate & Ashleigh for playing with us this weekend. The did an excellent job and we enjoyed playing with them. We look forward to playing again with them in the future, but until then, good luck with your normal teams!

Bats, Balls, Friends & Flurries

[Amy, Bear & Brooke showing their wild side]

Despite the blusterous winds and freezing temperatures, we took First Place in pool play on Saturday. We went 2-1 with our only loss to Havoc. Our coach, Cindy, happily excepted a brand new bat (Mayhem 454?) from the tournament director on our behalf. We could have stayed and played the other pool winner for a chance to win another bat, but we all agreed we were ready to go home and be warm instead.

Special thanks go out to Ayanna & Kate for braving the cold and playing with our team this weekend. We enjoyed playing with you guys and look forward to playing together again soon! Good luck with your other teams until then!

I'm still waiting on some stats from Cindy. Look at the bottom of the page to view more pics from this weekend. Thanks to Dina & Bear for providing pictures from the tournament.

St. Fu is scheduled to play again 02.25.12 in Conyers. Stay tuned.

Winter Down Time

During the last couple of months, we have been very busy with the holidays, celebrating new homes, birthdays and baby showers with team mates and others in the softball family community.
[Kelli (post injury), Cindy, Brooke & Bear enjoy a night at the roller rink for Zoe's birthday!]
We had our first team meeting a few weeks ago, devised a schedule and agreed on a new look.

Today was our second practice of the season and the bats looked great. We are super excited to get the season rolling with our first tournament next weekend at the Metro Softball Complex near Atlanta.
