“Leveling the Playing Field” Parent Brings Sports Camp to MANS

“It really is a dream come true!” said MANS mom Dakotah Pratt, the competitive softball player who with her partner, MANS alumnus Joshua Saddleback, headlined the 2021 “Leveling the Playing Field” appeal. With $84,000 raised and a schedule for athletic field construction in place, Dakotah went on to use her connection with the national Softball Canada organization to bring a four-session softball camp to MANS elementary students--the first sports camp run by Softball Alberta in an Indigenous community.

 

MANS parent Dakotah Pratt, who played at the 2022 Nationals for Squad, the first all-Indigenous women’s softball team, coaches a kindergartener at Softball Alberta’s first-ever sports camp in an Indigenous community on April 3. Dakotah received notice that she was appointed to Softball Canada’s Diversity Equity and Inclusion Committee on April 18.
