Fall T-Ball












































Matthew and his teacher Ms. Price and Riley from his 1st grade class










Matthew is one of the really good players on his team this season which is a huge confidence booster for him. He received the first game ball of the season and he still talks about that to this day. He finally knows how to run!!! Last season he would just take his time around the bases but he RUNS this season. His normal spot to play is short stop and he is gettin plenty of play time! The outfielders know it is their job to get the ball to Matthew. He is understanding the concept of when you can touch the base or when you have to tag the player. He is able to catch and throw the ball amazingly and his new glove has helped out a bunch. His batting is getting to the out field. All in all this season he has grown leaps and bounds. The team all together has been frustrating to me because there are about 5 4 year olds on the team and dirt is more important than the game. Once I changed my attitude about the process and saw how much he has soared this season made me actually love the game. One more season of T-ball and then we are off to coaches pitch!
