Personal Narrative: Cyclones
Two summers ago I was on a softball team called Cyclones. I was playing right field and I got a pop up to me. So, I went after the ball and ran too far ahead of it. The ball dropped and I was going to have to run after it. All of a sudden, I tripped as I was going after the ball. Luckily, there was someone backing me up to get the ball and throw it in. But instead of having that girl out, we gave her a triple. We were already getting crushed so a lot of people thought it was really funny, including me. But there was one girl that we could tell was really upset. So, by me missing that ball it put someone on the team down. Then she did not play her best for the rest of the game.

    Personal Narrative: Playing For The Goodlettsville All-Stars

    After we warmed up it was time to play the final game. We were the home team so we were in the field first. I was playing center field and it was so hot outside that I felt like I was going to melt. When the umpire yelled, ”Play Ball!” I jumped up on my feet and was ready for the first pitch. On the very first pitch the batter hit the ball straight to me. I watched the ball go up in the air and I was putting my glove up in the air ready to catch the ball but then I lost track of it. My sunglasses did not help me with the sun. I was trying to find the ball, but then SMACK! The ball hit me straight in the mouth and I fell to the ground like a sack of…

    Personal Narrative Essay: Redemption In A Softball Team

    Softball isn’t just a sport, it’s a passion. Last year, in a softball game, I tripped and cause us to get all three outs. My team, as well as my coach, was very upset. As a consequence, I sat the next two innings out. Sitting alone and thinking about how my mistake could cost us the game, I felt as though I needed to prove to my team that I didn’t mean to and that I could help get the game back. I finally convinced my coach to let me back in the game. An inning had gone by I still hadn’t proven myself. I was getting nervous. Bottom of the ninth, my chance came. Playing shortstop, a ground ball was headed straight for me. I caught it, and threw it to first. First then through it to third, and I tagged the runner coming from second base. A triple play! We were three points ahead and had won the game. I had such a feeling of self-accomplishment and pride. I had proven to the team that I was a…

    One day my coach pulled me to the side and told me I was going to be the quarterback for the game. I thought I was going to die! I never played quarterback so I was very nervous about messing up. I instantly became sick and thought about leaving the game. My mom was on the sideline, so I went over to her and told her about me being afraid to throw the ball. My mom grabbed me by the shoulders and told me to fight my fear, and focus on being the best quarterback the team ever saw. I turned around, got in the game, they passed me the ball, and I threw the ball directly…

We had heard two weeks prior ahead of time what was to come, however my mother having always been a strong-willed woman was determined not to leave despite the attempts my grandparents and father made for her to evacuate New Orleans with me and leave.Yet,…

    Everyone has peaceful and strange events that occurred in their lifetime. There are several chances that one expects something pleasant to happen and it comes true. On the other side, an occasion doesn’t appear when somebody expects it.

We had a lot of practices in December to get ready for games in January. I was really nervous for our first game. Our first game was supposed to be right after christmas break ended, but we had a snow day so it was cancelled. I wished it hadn’t been so I could just get it over with, but i was gonna have to wait.

    Remembering an Event

    It was spring, and the weather was just right for softball season. Friday night, the big stadium lights were shining right down on us. We were actually here I thought to myself we really made it this far. My softball team and I were playing for a chance to go to the state tournament, which was something unexpected coming from a team that was never ranked in pre-season or throughout district but until now. Throughout our season we lost two games against a team that was good, but also had a lot of cockiness. San Rayburn was that team, and it so happened to be the team that we had to play to go to the state tournament as well.…

    Personal Narrative: A Career As A Basketball Player

    I had just gotten the basketball passed to me by one of my teammates. At that moment I decided to attempt making a shot. With the ball in my hand, I run into the key to make a basket. Instead the opponent's centers try to block my shot, but I shoot before I crash into them. They were tall, one with white skin and was skinny, the other has light brown skin and was muscular. As I jumped up and released the ball, when I was coming down I see the basketball make it into the hoop. My teammate gives me a high-five and says,” Nice shot.”…
