“Dedication, integrity and perseverance” are the guiding philosophies of the Rage Softball Organization. We believe that our greatest contribution is in teaching young people the values of competition: to make a commitment, to work hard, to strive for excellence, to sacrifice to make the team better, and to be the best you can be as a person and as an athlete. We believe that our job is to develop the total person, and not just the athlete. Our players learn to respect the game of fastpitch softball and all who are involved in it.

Our idea of a perfect game is one in which only the players and the game are noticed; the coaches and umpires seem to disappear. Softball is fun because of the relationships that are formed on the field, the team unity, and the ability to accomplish a common goal together as a team. While a member of the Rage our players will learn about commitment, success, trust, respect, pride, tradition, attitude, motivation, accountability, responsibility, discipline, and integrity.

The Rage Softball Organization pledges to its players and parents:

• Provide a healthy, productive and structured environment for its players to learn and compete in the game of fastpitch softball;

• Promote team chemistry and teach the importance of achieving success through teamwork;

• Provide a unique, positive atmosphere for accomplished athletes to develop their skills while building confidence, self-esteem and mental toughness;

• Stress the importance of being a part of an organization as it relates to competitive sports and to success in the future;

• Develop softball teams with players that exemplify the meaning of selflessness and teamwork

• Promote and emphasize the concept of quality over quantity as applied to skill development
