As a 10th grader I played softball because the JV team was at risk of being cut if not enough girls joined. It was my first year ever playing, I’d never held a bat before, so I don’t have any awards or anything from that year. I didn’t play my junior year and I don’t plan on playing this year either. Is it worth it to put this on the common app? I don’t want to come across as flaky because I only played sophomore year.
It won’t matter either way. If it wasn’t meaningful to you and you have other activities it is fine to not put softball on your application. It is also fine to include it – many student try an activity for a year.
