No team is successful without working together to reach a common goal. Bit-os Elementary School (BES) Softball team believes that cooperating well with others and putting aside individual differences for the good of the team will bring them to the Caraga Regional Meet 2018.
While the girls train, they worry about the opponents from the different districts of Butuan City because they don’t have enough time for the training period. “Makaya ba kaha ni namo coach, one week ra man atong training?” (I doubt we can make it coach, we only have one week training?),” Hussa Pontimar, first base, said.
Despite the difficulties, the team has always soldiered on. “It’s for the love of sports. You are here competing with other districts because of this sport,” said Genelyn A. Gonzaga, the team coach.
Last year 2017, the team didn’t win the game over East 1 Butuan District but this time, Team BES qualified to represent the division in the 2018 Caraga Regional Meet as they were announced as the Overall Champion during the Division Athletic Meet 2017 last December 10-16, 2017. CRAM 2018 is a prestigious tournament that every softball player wants to be a part of. It will be held at Sports Complex, Brgy. Libertad, Butuan City on February 15 to March 1, 2018.
“I am very much proud of you”, coach Genelyn said. “ Only teamwork can bring us to success, of course, with the guidance of our dear Lord”.
