I assist coaching a girls fastpitch softball team in Yakima this summer. We went to Surrey, BC, Canada to test our skills against the Canadian competition this week. I don't have pictures of that (because I was too busy coaching, of course!) but the International tournament was going on at the same time! 31 countries from 6 continents were represented.

The Ugandan National Team was playing with only 9 gloves for the whole team, 3 bats and all the girls wore old sneakers. An unknown fan brought brand new shoes for the entire team and fit them all from the back of his car. It is people like this that make me feel better about the world.
