5 Helpful Tips for Keeping Your

Softball Glove Alive

Taking care of your softball glove is important for a number of reasons.  First of all, it will probably catch and/or stop more balls for you if it's properly cared for.  Second, it's expensive to keep buying new gloves simply because you didn't take care of the one you had.  Third it simply shows respect, honor, and pride for the game, your equipment and in what you do.

With that said, here are 5 Tips for Keeping your Softball Glove Alive!

1.  Do NOT sit on it - this is an absolute no-no!  Do not sit or let anyone else sit on your glove.

2.  Keep a ball in it when you're not using it - this helps keep your glove from getting smashed into undesirable form while in your bag, in your car, or anywhere else you may put it when you're not using it.

3.  Don't throw it or toss it down (especially on dirt or concrete) - another absolute no-no!

4.  Clean it - a little saddle soap and water on a cloth/towel works great.
5.  When setting your glove down on the ground, place it pocket down (as shown in the picture above).

"Are you a Diamond?"

We as coaches are like jewelers.

Jewelers don't make diamonds, they find them.

They can polish them up.
They can make them look prettier.
But at the end of the day the pretty rock in the ring was already a diamond.

Sometimes glass can be cut to look pretty too.
It can fool those that don't know what they are really looking for.

So how do you know if you are a diamond or cut glass?
Through testing under pressure.

Every one looks like a diamond when they are winning.

But when the game is 15-0 against your team...

  • Your coach is yelling at all of you
  • Parents are yelling at players for swinging at the wrong pitch
  • Or yelling about not swinging at the right pitch
  • Even your best friend on the team gives you the eye for dropping a popup
  • And the pressure is revealing a lot of polished glass around you...

    Because the pressure is making them all crack.

    What I want to know is...

    ARE YOU A DIAMOND?
