“Tavares Middle School’s brand new softball team will keep all
the players who come [and tryout] and turn in the permission
forms,” said softball coach Pauline Blount, who also is a P.E.
instructor at TMS. “It’s going to be a combination between
fast pitch and slow pitch."
Blount is not the only coach for this team; she will have help
from a volunteer parent. “The team will play at least
twenty five hours of softball” stated Blount, who plans to teach
the basics of the sport. “I’m very excited, [because] I’ve
never had this many kids wanting to play softball.”
Brianna Berry, a seventh grader at Tavares Middle School,
decided to tryout for the team because she enjoys being active.
“I decided to play [softball] because it’s my favorite sport,”
she said.
Berry doesn’t know how Coach Blount's style but she has a very
strong feeling she will be a great coach. "Softball is fun and a
great sport,” said Berry. |
