FINAL 4 LETS GOOOOO!! 💙💙

This is what it’s all about! I gave free softball lessons to around half the girls on the 5th/6th grade local rec team this summer and they won second place in their tournament! I am so proud of how much they have grown and off to school ball they go! 🩷

The BEST camp at my future home today! Getting to talk with the coaches and girls was great and so happy the 25 class could get together for a visit and football game yesterday! Couldn’t love it more! 💙 Eastern Illinois Softball @Coach_KPaulson Dan Paulson Toby Ring @CoachBirdie
