Playing Baseball Is a Rite Of Passage For Every Kid
Our son, Rohan is turning out to be quite an athlete already. He just turned 6 and it's amazing to see his interest in basketball, soccer, tennis, swimming, football and baseball. The kid is a sponge for all kinds of stats. Sure, he can't quite seem to stick to one favorite team yet (even if his old man is nudging him towards the Patriots or Red Sox), but he knows all the key players in the business. A future at ESPN? Perhaps.
So, it's Spring and it's T-ball season here in Avon, Connecticut. It's great to see him play, socialize with other kids and have so much fun. When I was growing up in India, I certainly didn't have such an organized activity. We just took our cricket bats, stumps and gloves out to the nearest field and started playing. Things are different now and I would say better.
Coach Lee Fitting keeps them all focused (on the day he wasn't there, the kids sure took advantage of us parents and so we totally appreciate what Lee is doing for our kids) and teaches them all the skills they can absorb at this stage of their lives like keeping that bat up high when taking a swing or staying in position when fielding. Every kid is encouraged, which again is something they need at this point and time of their lives.
Rohan is on the J. Foster Ice Cream T-ball team and I think they head out to the Avon or Simsbury location after a few games to get a treat. As a dad, I can't be more proud of my son getting so involved in the community through a sport that he enjoys a lot. Below you'll find images of him doing his thing.
If you would like to commission me to photograph your child enjoying a sport of their choice, please contact me.
