UpFront: It Takes a Team

by Amanda Margolis, PharmD, MS, BCACP

"This summer has been interesting, to say the least. While we are navigating the new challenges of traveling again and attending an in-person conference this fall, in my household, we also tried something new: team sports! My 7-year-old missed out on some opportunities last year due to COVID-19. This year, we thought softball might be safe for her to try; even though her league is unmasked and her age group is not indicated for vaccination, they are outdoors, and the sport is naturally socially distanced. She has only participated in individual extracurriculars so far, so trying something with a team and learning good sportsmanship was the goal. Somehow, I also ended up as the head coach for her team, the Cyclones. I played softball in high school and figured I could handle a U8 team. It has been a blast to watch the girls improve and, more importantly, work together to attempt to make plays. While they don’t always succeed, it is a thrill to watch them work together and to cheer each other on."
