Hello Softball family!
I’m Coach Gentile or Coach Courtney. I am a former
Division 1 softball coach and I am the Softball Director and your Customer
Success Specialist here at gameSense.
Like Coach P, who you met last week, I grew up with a bat
and ball in my hands. In some capacity, I have played every position on the
field; but pitching, 1B, and OF are the ones that I played in College at The
Ohio State University.
I realized when I was about 13 that I wanted to coach
softball in some capacity. I always tried to lead vocally and by example on the
field. It wasn’t until I got to be a Junior in college did I really want to
pursue coaching at the collegiate level. You are at your most vulnerable and
influential years from 18-22 and I wanted to be that coach that could help
mentor not only on the field but off as well. I’ve just recently started
coaching travel ball again and more passionate than ever to be that person for
these young women to look to and to teach them how to be independent, empowered
young women and to teach them what it will take to get to the next level of
their careers in softball.
I am grateful to be a part of this gameSense family as I
truly believe technology and pitch recognition is going to be the wave of the
future here in our game that we all love so much. I wish I would have had it
when I played!
