I know the team and the coach very well. The teams that come to the states always are welcome with open arms. As an umpire I too have had nothing but good to say about my reception where ever I have been in this country. A lot of people have a misconseption that where we are located that softball and fastpitch don't happen. We are very lucky to have some very good umpires here and get a lot of military personal that come through here with some very good experience. It is wonderful to come and do tournaments in the states and I have been very lucky to have been selected to come to Clovis,California in August for the Girls 18-under A. I'm looking forward to that Championship and am also traveling to two other tournaments this summer.
