Hi everyone! My name is Taylor Huffman, and I would love the opportunity to help your daughter grow her skills and expand her horizons in the sport of softball. I’ve been involved in softball for 18 years—as a player and as a coach. Over the past four years, I’ve had the privilege of coaching, including three years as the head middle school softball coach at Hamilton Township Local Schools. While I primarily played catcher and third base, I was also considered a utility player and could fill in anywhere on the field as needed. Those two positions were just my main starting spots. If you have any questions or would like to reach out, please feel free to contact me. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your athlete! Thank you! Taylor Huffman

"For me, coach Taylor was the only reason I didn’t give up on myself while playing softball throughout my middle school career. When I was on the edge of hanging up my cleats early, she supported me through every high and low I had ever encountered my entire middle school career. She has taught me a million and one things that I still continue to work on. She had taught me the mental and physical aspect of softball, always pushing me to become better and to play at my full potential. After I had finished playing softball with her as my coach, she continued to check up on me to see how I was doing with both travel and school teams. She always encouraged me to play my best and to become better no matter what level of softball I was at. To me, that is a real coach. If I had to describe a perfect coach or role model in two words, it’d simply be Coach Taylor.
