Coach James Surgery Update ❤️

Great news! Coach James made it through surgery and is officially on his way to recovery! The procedure went well, and we are so thankful for all of the prayers, love, and support you've shown.

He'll be hanging out at TMH for at least the next five days. Of course, knowing Coach James, there's a chance the staff might decide they've had enough of his jokes and send him home early! 😄

Seriously though, thank you all for continuing to lift him up in prayer. Your encouragement means more than you know. I'll keep everyone updated on his progress as he continues to recover.

(He may kill me over this picture though!)

Where we started verse where we are today!

Welp! 14u B bracket? We prefer to call it the "plot twist." 🤷‍♀️ Our 12U team jumped up to play in the 14U division this weekend and fought their way to the championship game but lost by just one run. They will have to live with runners up this weekend and we'll take it. Proud is an understatement! 🥎🔥 love these girls! Always leaving it all on the field!

We could not be more proud of our tough little 12u they played up in the 14u division today and finished pool play in the top of the B Bracket and are currently playing in the Championship Game! Great Job Ladies! Shine Bright Like A Diamond!

So many people have asked how they can help Coach James and family, here is a Meal
Train Page set up to help them out the week he comes home from the hospital.

Meal Train for Coach James and Family A Meal Train page is active for Coach James and Family. MealTrain.com simplifies the process of giving and receiving meals and more.

By now, most of you have heard that Coach James will be having open-heart bypass surgery on Monday. Apparently, too many years of "ballpark nutrition" from the concession stand finally caught up with him. 🌭🍔😂

In all seriousness, we are overwhelmed by the outpouring of love. The calls, texts, prayers, cards, meals, and thoughtful gifts have meant more to us than we can put into words. We truly feel surrounded by an incredible community.

At this point, there really isn't much we need except your continued prayers, positive thoughts, and maybe a gentle reminder to James that hot dogs are not one of the major food groups. 😊

Thank you all for loving us so well. We appreciate every single one of you and will keep everyone updated as we know more after Monday's surgery.

It’s hard to believe how quickly time has flown. So many of the girls in this picture have been with CCD since 10U. For
Some of them this is the only travel ball family they’ve ever known, and it has been incredible to watch them grow—not only as athletes, but as teammates, leaders, and young women.

Now they’re getting ready to move up to 16U, where the journey takes on a new level. The recruiting process begins, the competition gets tougher, and the work required to play at the next level becomes even more intentional.

We couldn’t be more proud of how far they’ve come, and we’re excited to see where their dedication, perseverance, and love for the game will take them. The best is still ahead. 💙🥎

And go get’em today!

CCD 14U is living it up in PCB after an awesome day of softball! 🥎☀️ One big softball family, fueled by good food, lots of laughs, and just enough chaos to keep the restaurant entertained. 🍕😂 Resting up... because tomorrow we're back to making the other teams wish they hit snooze! 💪❤️
