As a parent of a dedicated softball player at William Peace University, I am reaching out to everyone who values not only the sport but the growth it imparts on our student athletes. The university has plans to demolish our beloved softball field to pave way for a parking lot/deck. This move threatens the sports culture at our esteemed institution and puts the future of our young softball players at stake.

The softball field is more than just a playing ground; it is a symbol of hard work, teamwork, and sporting spirit that shapes our students beyond the curricular activity. Losing this field would have a detrimental effect on years of athletic tradition and amateur sports at the university. Apart from the immediate impact on current students and teams, it will deter potential athletic recruits in the future.

Together, let's protect the legacy of our university's sports field and the dreams of hundreds of students who strive on these diamonds. Your support could be pivotal in persuading the administration to reconsider their decision. Please sign this petition to stand up for our female student-athletes and conserve William Peace University's softball field.
