In primary school, she participated in netball, soccer, and athletics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news24.com\/news24\/community-newspaper\/tygerburger\/read-the-latest-print-edition-of-tygerburger-here-20240731-3\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>READ | The latest print edition of <\/strong><\/a><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news24.com\/news24\/community-newspaper\/tygerburger\/read-the-latest-print-edition-of-tygerburger-here-20240731-3\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>TygerBurger<\/strong><\/a><\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news24.com\/news24\/community-newspaper\/tygerburger\/read-the-latest-print-edition-of-tygerburger-here-20240731-3\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>here<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, Amber competes in drum majorettes and plays both softball and baseball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Less than a week after returning from the baseball series in Gauteng she competed at the Western Cape Majorettes and Cheerleading Championships this past Saturday \u2013 and made the cut, her mom proudly shared. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aurelia who herself has played softball since childhood \u2013 and still plays \u201con and off\u201d for Kuils River Cougars, said Amber started playing softball and baseball around the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe baseball season runs from October to March, and the 2023\/2024 season was only Amber\u2019s second\u201d. She played in a mixed (boys and girls) side at Cardinals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-dedication\">Dedication<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is clear the baseball bug had bitten. \u201cIf she is not practicing, she likes to watch the American College Series,\u201d Aurelia said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What the future holds for Amber that has mentioned she wants to be a lawyer remains to be seen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cShe has leadership capabilities and a heart for people,\u201d Aurelia said of her child who sometimes asks her to pack more food so Amber can give to others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aurelia said there\u2019s a lot of discipline in drummies. The drummies at HHH also have a strenuous training programme. She is impressed by Amber\u2019s level of maturity and dedication. Even after a long day Amber will still ask to see a video to check where she made mistakes, said Aurelia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Danielle Lewis, public relations officer of Kuils River Cougars Softball Club said Amber is known for her never-say-die attitude, discipline, and tenacity. \u201cHer story is a mix of grit, talent, and smashing stereotypes in a sport where ladies have long been side-lined.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lewis said Amber just loves competing \u2013 no matter the sport. \u201cShe put in the sweat and tears, practicing like a pro both on the field and off.\u201d
