We hope that all mothers had a great special day on Sunday, May 10. On the other hand we hope that all mothers will have a great day everyday, because mothers are special everyday.
The Select Nation had a relative quiet weekend with only 7 teams participating in tournaments. The plan was for teams to take a break and spend time celebrating the weekend with their mothers. But those 7 teams that played, played hard and brought home 3 championships, bringing the total for the Nation this season to 77.
Kudos to the Mighty 13u Lady Select RED with Coaches McCrae and McCadney. They have played in six tournaments and have earned a trophy in each. They are moving up fast in the Trophy Count with the goal to top their record of last season of 12. These ladies are for real.
With many of their mothers in attendance they won the USSSA State Championship, earning a special ring that showcase that they were and are the best.
What are prize for them. Their mothers can be justifiably proud of their daughters.
The Mighty 13u Boys SILVER team added to their Trophy Count by winning the championship at the YBOA TBA Classic tournament.
Congratulations to Coaches Frazier and Winfield for leading these young men to greatness.
I was able to attend this championship game last Saturday night and saw a team that played with Confidence, Aggressiveness, Relentlessness and SYNERGY. They displayed and implemented the motto of the organization. I was honored to be in attendance.
SYNERGY!!!
The team below has all smiles, and rightly so, because the Mighty 10u Boys BLACK 2023 team played up in the 11u category and won the championship at a YBOA North Forsyth Classic.
Coaches "Chan" and Tabb have lead the team to a 28 - 2 season record, the best win - lost record in the organization. Yes, smile.
These happy players with their moms won the championship Saturday night and I am sure they were well rested and celebrated Mother's Day at home.

Back to our Trophy Count goal for 2015. Again the goal is 100, about 3 trophies per team. We have 35 named teams this season with 30 actively participating. Thus, we should have no problem with those 30 teams achieving that goal. But listen, we have earned 77 to date and we have 3 1/2 months to go before September 1, 2015. On Mother's Day weekend last season we had earned 57. We are 20 above that number this year. All I can say. Keep Going Select!!!
