Darvin got involved with Girls Fastpitch as many Dad's do by taking on the coaching of his daughter, Alina's, youth Fastpitch teams.
After coaching & playing for his own team, "the Eliminators" for over 20 years, he teamed up with one of his players, Greg Courdy, to coach his Santa Rosa Girls Softball teams for 6 years. (2007-2012). During that time their teams went on to win more then 86% of their games, 3 League Championships, 2 Tournament Championships and 1 Sonoma County All-stars Championship.
During that time he also coached the Redwood Empire RugRats, (2010) & Santa Rosa Victory, (2011-2013). Those teams went to 2 ASA Western Nationals & won 8 Tournament Championships.
While his daughter, Alina was playing for the Analy High School Tigers she was playing for her Schools coach , Nick Houtz who was coaching the Cal Impact Gold and the Nor Cal Renegades. Darvin took on the Coaching for the Nor Cal Renegades ( 2014-Current) where he coaches with his long time coach/friend Greg Courdy.
In the off season Darvin & his wife Nicky enjoy traveling to see Alina play for the Cal Poly (SLO) Mustangs where she is in her second year as a Food Science Major. Their son, Dalton will be playing Freshman baseball for the Analy Tigers this season. By the way Darvin has been coaching Dalton's teams for the last several years too.
Greg originally got the itch for coaching fast pitch softball watching his soon to be sister-in-law, at a young age in southern California.
He finally had the opportunity to coach the game he loves when he had a daughter of his own. Once Greg's daughter moved on from softball to college, he then met up with Darvin Goodrum to continue his fast pitch coaching legacy.
Greg has had experience coaching throughout Sonoma County at all different levels of fast pitch. Greg's upbeat energy and competitive drives is what makes his players excel across the diamond. Greg has been a lifelong fan of everything across the realm of sports. He has studied immensely the likes of storied coaching icons such as Tom Landry, Ned Yost and John Calipari. Greg tries to use the same strategies he see's on the field from these coaches and apply them to the softball diamond.
Greg is also the captain and head chef of the legendary competition Bar-B-Que team, Aces and 8's BBQ, where he has to manage many different high level obstacles on cook day. A mixture of BBQ and Softball fuels Greg's fire to challenge himself at a competitive level in everything he does.
Greg is now the owner of his own business, Corday Lighting in Santa Rosa where he gets to spend his days doing what he loves most, working with his children Tyler and Amanda.
