Happy Mothers Day to all of our baseball and softball Mamas!!

To the sports moms…

The ones packing the bags, washing the uniforms, sitting in the bleachers, juggling the schedules, going from gym to gym and field to field, calming the nerves, celebrating the wins and carrying the heartbreaks with them too.

The ones making it all happen behind the scenes … often navigating from a place of exhaustion,
but always a place of unwavering love.

We see you.

And while they may not say it now…
One day?

Your kids will look back and recognize all you did, too.

They’ll see the person who showed up in more ways than one…
… to make sure they could play the game they love.

Big first weekend at home for Ivor Baseball & Softball! 🧡💙🥎⚾️💙🧡

Our Tee Ball Blue team got 4 (yep… FOUR! And yes we know that’s not how it works! 😆) outs in the first inning of their game — if you know tee ball, that’s a BIG deal! 😂👏

We had a huge turnout for the inaugural 8U games today, and our girls did great!

Our 10U team battled hard and tied with DTM, and our 13U girls brought home a big 11–4 win over DTM! 💪

On the road Friday night, our Mustang team tied with Sedley, then came back today to defeat Waverly!

Our Tee Ball Orange team also played great yesterday, and our Coach Pitch team brought home a win as well!

Couldn’t ask for a better start to the season. Great games and an awesome turnout from our community. Huge shoutout to everyone who worked so hard to make it happen!!

“Just kids, a bat, a ball and a field full of ear to ear grins.” That’s what it’s about! 🧡

I was reminded of exactly what youth baseball should be on Saturday, after our sons’ 10U doubleheader was over.

As we waited for the older boys to wrap up on the adjacent field, a trickle of kids made their way back onto the now-empty diamond they’d just finished playing on—boys from both teams, a few younger siblings, and even a couple of older ones, too.

Before long, they had picked teams and were partway through their own wiffle ball game.

No yelling parents, no ump, just a sea of grey and red uniforms jumbled together like a bowl of jelly beans.

As far as I know, none of the kids from the opposing towns knew each other beforehand. But it didn’t matter—because in that moment, they were just kids brought together by the common thread of a game they all love.

It’s so easy to get caught up in today’s competitive youth sports world.

And don’t get me wrong—of COURSE we want our kids to succeed.

Having drive, discipline, and a winning mindset teaches them so many valuable life lessons they’ll use their entire life.

But that can’t be the whole of it.

What about the FUN?

What about the sandlot-style games without adult interference, where the kids are free to just do their thing?

What about the games where the atmosphere isn’t so heated that they’re able to actually come together and play afterward—no matter who won or lost the official game?

What about giving them the space to fall head over heels for the sport—so much so that they can’t get enough, even after a doubleheader—instead of pressuring them so intensely that their play starts to feel like a full-time job?

What about the basics? What about playing for the pure joy of it, instead of always feeling like there’s someone to impress?

Kids never cease to amaze me. We have so much to learn from them—so much to be reminded of—if we just pay attention.

Just kids, a bat, a ball, and a field full of ear-to-ear grins.

That’s what it always has been—and always should be—about.
