Dynasty Fastpitch: My Site News

Stay posted with GOLD updates by visiting http://gold.asasoftball.com/

After some fine investigative journalism, Kristi Swartz of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution discovered and reported that it is, in fact, the 2009 Cowles Cup Champion Rockford Thunder Team that Dynasty Fastpitch is working to acquire (subject to approval by the National Pro Fastpitch League).  Atlanta loves a Champion, and there is no Champion better than the Thunder!  Let's get behind them Atlanta - these ladies deserve our best effort and they can't wait to meet you!

If you want to be a part of this effort (in any capacity - we are hearing from sponsors, volunteers and investors), please contact us at:  pcdelashmit@yahoo.com

Also, you can tap into the excitement of the players at Cat's twitter page: www.twitter.com/catosterman

As you know, the NPF is an Official Development Partner of Major League Baseball.  The video of the 2009 National Pro Fastpitch Season (including the Cowles Cup Championship Series played at Firestone Stadium in Akron, Ohio) is archived on the Major League Baseball website. If you love to watch great fastpitch action, played by some of the best in the world, then take your pick at:  http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/mediacenter/npf.jsp

The link may be a little hard to find, so bookmark the page or come visit us any time you're ready for THE GREATEST SHOW ON DIRT™!

Two more Thunder stars, Chelsea Spencer and Shanel Scott, join the Thunder Roll Call!

If you haven't seen it yet, Chelsea Spencer rocked a Thunder-shot homer against the Pride in the 2009 Cowles Cup Championship Final (Game 3 - bottom of the 3rd inning) that took Lowe through the centerfield fence and put the game away.  Go to www.MLB.com to search for the footage of the Championship series - it is terrific, fundamental softball and Cat was masterful as always!

Three of the biggest names in professional fastpitch gave Dynasty Fastpitch a word of encouragement on Twitter! NPF Commissioner Cheri Kempf, Cat Osterman and Jennie Finch threw their support our way last night, in the midst of another incredible victory for the New York Yankees dynasty.

Dynasty Fastpitch looks forward to the day that we capture our 27th Cowles Cup, and reach millions of young ladies and their families - we all need a dream! With names like Kempf, Osterman and Finch behind us, we see that day coming soon.

Please support and follow the NPF and these terrific players - follow them at:

Well, true to form, Jennie Finch took the time to check in with us from the road and almost immediately the Chicago Bandits took the lead in the voting for Favorite NPF Team from the Rockford Thunder!  It's a border war now!

And The Diamond Sports 2009 Pitcher of the Year, Eileen Canney (Chicago Bandits), quickly moved into the race with Cat and Jennie for Favorite NPF Pitcher. But the southern girls Abbott (UT) and Norris (UNC) are right there with her. 

Vote as much as you like, but keep those votes coming!  Also, please encourage your local businesses to support National Pro Fastpitch and our effort to bring it to Atlanta. Have them email us or leave a comment in the Guestbook and we will follow up.

Dynasty Fastpitch would like to express our appreciation to all of the NPF players who have commented in our Guestbook (and there are many!).  They're all Champions too!

Our thanks to:

Hey Atlanta fastpitch fans, we had another Chicago Bandit check in - Caitlin Lever from Team Canada!  The Chicago Bandits are in a dead heat with the Rockford Thunder, and the USSSA Pride is coming on now. The energy is building and we can do this together!

Dynasty Fastpitch knows how Atlanta loves a little friendly competition! Keep voting for your favorite NPF players in our Survey, and we'll announce the results November 30th.

Cat and Jennie are neck-and-neck, but our hometown girl Lisa Norris is comin' on strong (just like her pitching!). We're bettin' there are some Tar Heels out there somewhere to make this a 3-way race!

Atlanta is Thunderstruck right now, but the Thunder was only up by 1 over the Bandits! Amo's been sending her Chicago Bandit friends to check out the action in Atlanta and this one is a tight game too. The Bandits don't go down without a serious fight. If the Bandits can get Jennie to jump into the game (and sign the Guestbook), they might be able to take it -- we'll see!  {=0

Thanks to everyone for your encouraging comments in our Guestbook - please keep 'em coming!  We hope to have resolved the problem with the Survey, so please try it again and let us know if it's not working for you.
