The Langford Lightning Lizards peewee C fastball team hopes to continue its winning ways at the provincials next week.

The same group of 12 girls have been playing together for the past three seasons and have yet to lose a game.

The peewee C team finished this season 19-0 and is now gearing up to go to Richmond, July 6 to 8.

B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 a lot of work, itB次元官网网址檚 not like we are just breezing through every game,B次元官网网址 said Taelor Barwis, the 13-year-old who plays second base.

B次元官网网址淥ur team is pretty good, I donB次元官网网址檛 see any flaws,B次元官网网址 added outfielder Kayla Williams,13.

Many of the girls have been playing ball together since they were five and when it comes to practising, they often spend as much time chatting as working on skills.

B次元官网网址淔ocus is the main struggle,B次元官网网址 said team manager Leah Barwis.

But, with provincials around the corner, the girls have stepped up their game and are practising every night.

B次元官网网址淲e have to eat healthy food and drink lots of water. If we donB次元官网网址檛 eat healthy our coach will go into a frenzy,B次元官网网址 Williams said.

With all the extra effort going in this year, the team is looking for some better results than they have had in the past. The team has qualified for provincials for the past three years. Last year, they placed eighth and the year before fifth.

B次元官网网址淚 have a feeling that this year we will place (in the top),B次元官网网址 said 14-year old infielder Chris Malone.
