March 15, 2013 taz1218 Men's 60 5 posts | Looking for a 55+ team Turning 55 in May and want to get back in softball. Looking for a team in the Austin area. |
March 15, 2013 taz1218 Men's 60 5 posts | I have played baseball softball both slow pitch and fast pitch in Austin Texas. In slow pitch 15 years ago my team played in major open league. |
March 17, 2013 PlanoPlayer Men's 65 72 posts | League team only, tournament team only, both? What is your best defensive position? Can you run your own bases? Are you there when you say you are going to be there? How long has it been since you have played in a league or as a regular player on a tournament team? What is your height and weight? If a tournament team is one of your desires, do you have: 1. the money to travel - I will take a rough estimate and say it will cost about $2,000 to play a full annual tournament schedule, maybe more. If you have to pay your fair share of tournament entry fees, definitely more. 2. an understanding wife that will let you travel on weekends to play softball? 3. a job that will not get in the way of weekend travel with the need to be off at least 2 Fridays and at least one Thursday for the big national/world tournaments? |
March 24, 2013 taz1218 Men's 60 5 posts | Infield mostly middle infield. Yes run my own bases and always will show when I say I'll be there. I started playing tournaments again this year and want to at least play tourneys. 6ft 190lbs. Yes to all questions below tourney team. |
