I umpired in a tournament in Houston this weekend where Lindsey
had a booth and was also coaching a team in the tournament.



However, mainly she was being an ambassador for the game of
softball. When she was not coaching, she was teaching.
Boys and girls of all ages always crowded around to listen
and learn hitting techniques. These kids from from age 6
to 18. (Countless of Mom's and Dad's also had questions.)

You would have had to seen it to really know the effort
and engery she put into her program. She stated she may
not know it all, but she knows plenty and showed that she
really wants to share her knowledge of the game and the
abilities that she has.

My hats off to Lindsey Gardner. She definiately
has the right attitude about the game and is showing it
when teaching and talking with our younger generation.

I hope she continues her efforts.

My one regret was that I did not get to umpire a game in which
she was coaching. I almost missed one of my games while watching
her work with the kids.

She has a couple of articles over on eteamz and also a website.

Definiately an assest to the game of softball.
