Athletes range in age from 4 to 18 By Marty Cheek On a foggy Saturday on the ball fields at San Martin/Gwinn Environmental Sciences Academy, more than 100 girls trained at a “clinic” to get ready for the upcoming fast-pitch softball season. As they were coached in hitting, catching and other skills for the opening of the Spirit of Morgan Hill’s softball season March 7, the excitement of coming together to build a team and play a game they love filled the morning session. The Spirit of Morgan Hill softball program athletes range in age from 4 to 18. They come together on weekends as well as sometimes one day a week from Gilroy, San Martin and Morgan Hill to strengthen their game skills in a friendly, non-competitive learning environment. The main mission in the youth sports league is to promote “the fun and enjoyment of any girl, at any skill level, to come and play softball.” The athletes play in four divisions depending on age and skill: T-ball, Minors, Juniors and Upper.
