Beijing Softball Schedule

Alicia Daly leaves for Beijing China on July 30th.  Here is her softball schedule for the first several days there:
3Aug 9:00---11:00 Guangdong VS Tianjin
14:00---16:00 Beijing VS Team TFS International
16:00---18:00 Sichuan VS Team TFS International
4Aug 9:00---11:00 Sichuan VS Guangdong
14:00---16:00 Tianjin VS Team TFS International
16:00---18:00 Guangdong VS Team TFS International

After speaking with Coach Bastian, we found out the these are Pro Chinese softball teams and some of the teams may have Olympic players on it.
We just got the following information:

The following statement to all TFS China Trip participants has been issued by Coach Bastian:  
"Per Chinese Softball Officials request.

Non Coaching and or Players. 

May not be allowed to attend and view and TFS China Trip Games or events that Include Chinese Leaders, Coaches and or Players."

The Chinese thought is was funny that the American parents want to come to see how their children play.  In China if your child is chosen to play for your country, then you hand them over and don't know how they are being trained.  So Alicia's mother and brother whom will be going on the trip with her will not be able to watch the games.



Alicia will also be playing this Saturday at Campbell University.  Coach Peterson requested scrimmages between the Wild Cats, Knockouts, Spirits Fastpitch Black 18u and the Greenville Diamonds.

Latest News

Alicia once again has been honored by being invited to a prospective camp. At this time the Daly family as chosen not to attend this camp.

Alicia continues to do her best to help out her high school time. She won her first conference game as pitcher when Northern Guilford played Eastern Guilford at home. Here is the link to what the Greensboro Sports had to say. Alicia was recently very helpful to her team in the home game against Western Alamance. She analysized the fielders and placed a bunt down for a hit to first base. This play enabled her to score and rallied her team. She also had several beautiful catches in the outfield.

Alicia recently helped out with the Sumerfield Recreational Association's softball clinic. She truely enjoyed her time working with the little softball players. She made a very special little fan named Caroline , whom called Alicia, Huggy. When the clinic was over and Alicia had to leave, Caroline gave Alicia a big Huggy.

Later that weekend, when Alicia was out with her friends and representing Northern Guilford High School by wearing her Northern Softball T-shirt, a father came up to her and asked her to give his daughter whom was just starting out in softball advice. Alicia smiled as she always does and said " Never give up". He said when was the last time you struck out and Alicia said " probably two games ago." The father said to his daughter " see it happens to everyone."

After a recent game, a father of a one of the players as well as a travel softball coach, stopped Alicia and told her that she is always smiling no matter what happens on the ball field and don't ever change that. Even her fellow team-mates say she is always smiling.

Alicia continues to collect used softball equipment to take to the chinese girls when she travels to China in August. This equipment will help change their lives and may even help develope more teams/players for future Olympics. This link by Michael Bastian might help explain that a little.
