2011 SBU Alumnae Game

The 2011 St. Bonaventure Softball Alumnae Game will be played on Saturday September 10th. Game time is 11:00am. I want to see every Bonnies player that ever played there! See you all in September.

Remember why you play...

"Somewhere behind the athlete you've become and the hours of practice and the coaches who have pushed you is a little girl who fell in love with the game and never looked back... play for her."
Mia Hamm (born on March 17, 1972)

Hamm scored more international goals in her career than any other player, male or female, in the history of soccer (158). Hamm became one of the most famous women athletes in the world, an iconic symbol of women's sports, and an inspiration and role model to a generation of sports-minded girls. She was named the women's FIFA World Player of the Year the first two times that award was given (in 2001 and 2002), and is listed as one of FIFA's 125 best living players (as chosen by Pelé).

Being a Teammate

"Ask not what your teammates can do for you. Ask what you can do for your teammates."
Magic Johnson (born August 14, 1959)

Johnson is considered one of the most inspirational basketball players of all time. For his feats, Johnson was honored as one of the NBA 50 Greatest Players in 1996 and enshrined in the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2002.

Team Work

Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work. ~Vince Lombardi

I am a member of a team, and I rely on the team, I defer to it and sacrifice for it, because the team, not the individual, is the ultimate champion. ~Mia Hamm

Maturity

Maturity does not come from age. It comes from the taking of responsibility.

The Countdown has begun...
