510 Pride Fastpitch hasn't added a story.
The 510 PRIDE 14U-Dixon team is excited to announce their participation in the Platinum Division of the Premier Girls Fastpitch National Championships (coming up quick) in August! This provides an opportunity for the team, players and coaches to compete at one of the highest levels of the game with teams from around the country.
Most, if not all, of these players started playing softball or baseball when they were 5-6 years old. To get invited to an event like this in their first year together as a new team, in a new unknown organization, is a big deal. And having an opportunity to play at a National Championship level is something many players have aspired for.
While making this Championship tournament was the end goal for the team at the beginning of the season, when the team started practices in late January 2021, the reality of a competitive softball season in California was still uncertain due to COVID-19. The team did not play their first tournament until the end of April 2021, while many teams they faced had been together and played through the fall of 2020 and into the spring in out of state and/or at other unofficial tournaments held in the early months of the year.
Players and coaches have worked very hard over the last several months of the spring/summer season to get where they are in a relatively short amount of time - the organization and their parents are extremely proud of them. They have faced some challenges over the last several months - heck, the last year+! - and both the players and coaches have kept their heads down and learned lessons of resilience and perseverance.
The fundraising efforts in this campaign will help cover the travel costs of their amazing coaches, the hefty tournament fee, supplemental coaching for mental performance training and additional gear for the players to attend this event.
While we have set a stretch goal, we would love to exceed that and appreciate any help above this amount, as any funds remaining will be reinvested back into the organization for the coaching staff in upcoming seasons.
Thank you in advance for your support of the players and coaches! www.510pridefastpitch.com || Purpose - Respect - IQ - Discipline - Excellence

A little more about 510 PRIDE: One of the goals of the organization is to increase the number of women coaches in competitive travel softball. We have been incredibly fortunate to made a huge step towards that in our first year. Your support will help us to be able to continue to recruit and retain these women role models. These women want to coach a sport they love to give back to the game that gave them so much, and to girls coming up that want a similar experience. Especially in the area we live in, this can be financially challenging to do something these women coaches love to do and have so much to offer, without compensation to support them. While there has been an increase in women coaches - very successful women coaches! - at the collegiate level, competitive travel softball (ages 10-18) is behind in both women head and assistant coaches. We are proud to be part of making that change. See our staff page on the website below for the bios of Coach Meagan, Geena and Cody and the rest of the organization's coaching staff.
