Introduction-Dear+Reader

==My topic is softball. I chose softball for my topic because I have played softball for 8 years now. Also I have been on a travel softball team in the summer and this will be my 4th year. I have also played on a fall team for 2 years. Softball and baseball have been in my family for a long time. My brother is a senior at Natick High and he is the captain of the baseball team and he will be playing baseball in college next year. My dad played baseball in high school and college. My grandfather played baseball for a long time and he got a full scholarship to Boston College and he played baseball there. I didn't really have a choice in weather I wanted to start softball because my parents signed me up, but right away I loved it. My parents wanted me to play, but if i didn't like it then they wouldn't have made me, but I really liked it so there wasn't a problem. I remember being on a tee ball team with the kids at my school and I remember moving up to coach pitch which is when the coaches pitch to you. After coach pitch I remember moving into the junior league of softball and now I'm in my final year of senior league. I hope to play next year in high school and hopefully when I'm a senior I will get to be a captain. __It's my life.__ ==
