Additional Strengths or Comments Over the past 7 years my passion for softball has only grown larger. I believe I am hard working and eager to learn. I am dedicated and willing to do whatever is best for the team’s success.

I have only just recently found my place at third base last season but settled in nicely and not scared to put my body on the line. Previously, I religiously played short stop and could also play second base so I am happy to fill in where needed. I also have a small amount of experience in the out-field so could play there as well.

As a batter I focus on making big contact and having a low strike-out rate. In previous teams I have typically hit at 4,5 or 6 but I am adaptable and can fill in any position or situation.

Additional Strengths or Comments I'm a left-handed pitcher, but I also feel comfortable fielding as an outfielder or at first base. As a batter, I specialise in high-contact, right-handed hitting, focusing on achieving a high on-base percentage and a low strikeout rate. At the club level, I typically hit lead-off or second, but I am adaptable and can fill any position or situation that is needed for the team.
I am highly coachable and committed to doing whatever is necessary for the team's success.
Ideally, I would prefer to be paired as pick-up combo with Safira Schultz, my catcher and battery partner from school, club, Hutt Valley reps, and NZ DSX squad. We have a lot of experience as a battery combination, and also hit back-to-back at the club level.

Additional Strengths or Comments I excel as a catcher, have a powerful and accurate arm and a good understanding of how to strategically call a game. I have had the opportunity to catch for many of the top pitchers at the U19, U17, and U15 levels, which has helped me gain knowledge of different pitching styles and needs. In the batting order, I typically hit from the 2 or 3 spot, and regularly get asked to steal bases. I specialise in hitting extra-base hits for my teams, although I can adapt to any offensive situation.

Ideally, I'd prefer to be part of a team alongside my battery partner, Bella Coxson. We know each other's games inside and out, and have worked together when representing NZ, Hutt Valley, school, and club for youth and premier grades.

Association Whanganui
Club Braves
Position(s) Anywhere but pitcher
Mainly 2nd base
Softball Achievements Top batter in my club (men and women included) in 22/23 and 21/22 seasons
Most runs in my team in 2020
Most catches in my team 2020
Most dedicated player for my school in 21,22,23
Played u19 for Whanganui in 2023
Played u15 for Manawatu in 2020

 
Additional Strengths or Comments I would love to be able to play for another team because Whanganui just won’t have the numbers to be able to field a team this year. And because this will be my last year of reps i would really love to represent a town. And because Manawatu is close enough to Whanganui where it is easy to travel I feel like I would be missing out if I didn’t have a chance.

I have been playing softball all my life and i feel that I have the experience to be on the diamond. I play 2nd base mostly but can pretty much play anywhere but pitcher. I haven’t caught in a while but I would be keen to pick it up again. I have the knowledge to be able to take care of myself on the diamond and if others need a pick up I am there to assist. I have a keen eye when it comes to being in the batters box and can pick balls and strikes pretty well and I can bunt if I really need too.
