My Little League Players Gave me a Great Lesson

At our first Little League practice (this week) we asked our team of 7-8 year olds if they knew the 5 fundamentals of baseball. They enthusiastically raised their hands and told us:

1) Have fun
2) Try your hardest
3) Don’t get upset if you lose
4) Be kind
. . . and things like that.

Being silly coaches, we were expecting

1) Running
2) Hitting
3) Fielding
4) Throwing
5) Catching

Even after taking hours of Little League baseball coach training, we learned the most about baseball from our kids!
