love. peace. softball.

you gotta hope t dream, dream t believe and believe to achieve! four bases, three trikes, two teams, one winner. its not just a game, its a way of life: softball, this is my destiny!
 
a true champion is someone who wants to make a difference,who never gives up and gives everything they have no mater what the circumstances are. a true champion works hard and never losses sight of their dreams!
 
two outs, bases loaded, bottom of the seventh, BRING IT!

blood, sweat, and tears, you still want more! to play it takes talent, to win it takes desire!
 
dream the biggest dream, dream the wildest dream, dream a dream you never thought you could achieve, if you push that dream will become a reality, so dream, dream, dream. and you will achieve!
 

Heyy, my name is Emily Schaffer. I am 13 years old, I live in 
New Jersey, and i play for the Jersey flames. This year we made it to the WFC softball nationals in South Carolina (Mytrle Beach). Our team came in second place to the West Virginia TNT Explosion. They were 76 an 0 their whole season so when we lost to them in the championship we werent so upset, we knew we played our best. I love my team. We usually get along great but like every other "family" we can have minor arguments sometimes. I wouldnt rather be on any other team. We are a very well team. I play first base, pitcher, and sometimes the outfield. My dad is the head coach and he runs the team very professional. I love Jennie Finch, Cat Osterman, Jessica Mendoza, and Natasha Watley. 

Ask me any questions,comments or just to say hi!I will answer any questions.

We had a Fantastic Fun weekend in Binghamton, NY! We had our 2nd to last camp of the year... it makes me a bit sad thinking about it. We had 400 awesome campers and their families. We packed the dome! It was such a wonderful environment, we had tons of fun! Its always great coming up to the Northeast, seeing the excitement for fastpitch. I am so grateful to all who came and participated! Thank you to Lou Bishop for having us up here. We look forward to coming back next year! Here are some shots from the the festivities!

This crew below is the unit! They make it happen! Family & friends... well they are all family! Well, minus the chef! ;) They are the ones who sacrifice so much, they have allowed me to make my dream of running my own camps a reality. Let me tell you, they are beyond selfless, so giving, so loving, so of so much. They are always there to do this, they are the foundation and the glue to the JF Softball Camps. We are so forever grateful and forever in debt to this crew! Thank You and We love you!
(I know its a lil' corny being in a Japanese Steak House but its the only shot I have of everyone!)



These are my girls! You know those girls who know you inside out! Those girls who you can always count on! Those girls who tell you what you need to hear not just what you want! They are way more than teammates they are best friends! These girls are above and beyond, I love them like sisters! My besties!!! They give me the warm fuzzies! XOXO



I love this shot! My dad and I talking shop at the pitching station! I'm so blessed to have him come work my camps! He is my backbone! I would not be where I am today without him. He is my confidence when mine is gone. He tells me what is right, not easy, but right. A man of integrity, a man of knowledge, he has impacted my life beyond words. He continues to amaze me everyday! I love you dad!



Bergie! What can I say, she is Bergie! One of the best people I have ever met! I love her, admire her, am in awe of her, am so grateful for her and her friendship! And she just so happens to be the most blinged out softball player of all time for Team USA, 4xOlympian!


Mac Attack-52 hitting bombs in the dome! That's what I call her! She is incredible! Inside and out! So caring, so funny, so lovable, so giving, so sharing, I LOVE her! She is one big heart (52) one big muscle!



Another shot of camp! Good times!



Thank you, Binghamton, NY!
Keep Dreaming & Believing! Til' next time!
