You have now entered the Texas Softball Hall Of Fame website, where Leadership and Character get revealed in many ways. We are truly glad that you have chosen to read the 2010 homepage today. It is exciting to become part of the countless improvements, skill enhancements, and attitude changes which develop in the context of our softball relationships. We believe that even though we have an authentically good history and that our leagues are functioning very well now, the best is yet to be. Hall things are possible. One of these great possibilities happens with the growing of even deeper roots on these fields of hope. This kind of growth transcends our accomplishments from the past. When this kind of hope is present, it also energizes our work and our play.
The Texas Softball Hall of Fame Director since 1985, Ralph Hall, focuses on a clear vision of how the game of softball can be played. Rather than try to explain his vision to you, he would ask you to come to the ballpark, stand beside him, and see it for yourself. Together we will see more walking through the gates of trust than we could ever picture in the mirror of accomplishments. With eyes wide open you can do more than just catch the historic ball, you can catch a new vision for how these games are planned and how they can be played. With vision, caring, and skill, we see that plan. With cooperation, commitment, and courage, we lead the people. The value of this leadership is connected to those leaders in softball who are rooted in character and are nurtured by sportsmanship. Their influence and impact will last far beyond Ralph's work or lifetime. With that kind of inspirational hope, we will continue in 2010 with this heartfelt aspiration: "WE WORK. YOU PLAY."
In 2010 we are playing leagues at two locations, Cullen Park in far west Houston and Community Park in Missouri City, Texas. Our priority again this year is to promote these leagues. This is our game and recreational softball is spoken here. Aqui se habla softball. There will be many whose hopes and dreams will come alive in 2010. Ultimately, it is not the cheers of the spectators or the accolades of peer recognition, but it is the quietly courageous whispers from heartfelt relationships that add value to our lives. Those who step up to the plate and get field tested can fully appreciate the play style we will enjoy.
The question for you is a simple and straight forward one. Will you come and bring your team to join us in this mission? Sportsmanship, fairness, and character are well thought out priorities for those who choose Texas Softball Hall of Fame and remain its loyal supporters. It is they who will transform cloudy yesterdays into bright tomorrows by leaving a lasting legacy of hope. To lead CHAMPIONS OF HOPE is a privilege and to serve them is an honor. LET'S PLAY BALL! Ralph Hall 2-7-2010
"To play in a Sunday League, $395. To join a Tuesday or a Friday night League, $355. To build positive relationships with the Texas Softball Hall of Fame community, priceless." Ralph Hall
"It's not the coin flip which begins every game, but each game begins with the One whose name is written on the coin." Ralph Hall

RALPH HALL, JR. & BUD SELIG, COMMISSIONER, MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL
"As we connect with our past and our future in ways that bring honor to the softball community we will discover higher purposes than terror. We will be part of a dream deeply associated with the dreams of Americans and Texans. We will be winners of men more than winners of games. We will be a people who are transformed out of the pain and a nation who enters into the fields of promise and hope. In these fields the best is yet to be. I will be there. Will you be there with me for the next chapter? Let's become one nation united in attitudes, actions, and purposes. Be one. Let's play ball!" Ralph Hall
