VA Glory Gagliardi

A Movement In Fastpitch Softball

Glory Fastpitch softball was founded in 2010 by Suzy Willemssen. What started out as her single 18u Glory Gold team has now grown into 24 teams spanning across 4 states with 10u-18u age levels. Suzy’s hope was to bring out the greatness in our sport and each other by creating a Purpose Driven Softball movement and community. We believe it takes giving and talented people working together with servant’s hearts to reach our fullest potential. We believe coaches, parents, players, trainers — everyone must give each other their best to create a true TEAM culture where athletes can discover their incredible gifts and build the courage and sense of purpose to share their greatness on and off the field. The Glory organization aligns people’s talents and passions and shares a deep desire to serve and give to one another. We feel that with our platform we have a responsibility to use it for a greater purpose. We are honored to be recognized by the NFCA as the top travel organization for raising funds for their Strikeout Cancer initiative. Over the past 5 years, Glory has raised over $200,000 for Childrens National to fight pediatric cancer.
