So I'm dipping back into this for a bit because I came up with an idea for something but I could use some help from the DPF group. I thought of a t-shirt idea that would involve a small logo on the front (our letters in a softball-type icon), and the back would list the "Ten Commandments of Softball". If you could list your "10 Commandments of Softball" (or your top 10 rules you'd want anyone interested in your team to know), what might they be? What I thought of is below (in no particular order):
- Thou shalt never look at a third strike. Ever.
- Thou shalt not commit unsportsmanlike behavior against an opponent.
- Honor thy umpires' calls, right or wrong.
- Thou shalt always run through 1st base when necessary.
- Thou shalt steal. As many bases as possible.
- Do not sin against the names on your jersey.
- Thou shalt run the bases like a bat out of Hell. (given to me by one of my players)
- Honor thy commitment to the game.
- Respect your teammates as you would have teammates respect you.
- Thou shalt have fun and love the game at all times.
I'm looking to make it fun and appealing but, at the same time, something that can be understood by all players/parents/coaches, etc.
