| Oct. 25 Enviro-Vac Men's 65 489 posts | Playing Under The Lights In Phoenix I played a few games under the lights in Phoenix the past two weeks in both the 60s and in the 50s division. I don’t know what the lights were like at the other complexes but at Desert West it was scary. I had a number of my team-mates comment that they could not see the batted ball go by them and I had a few go by me at first base that I only heard. I also played some games under the lights in St. George and did not experience the same problem. I wonder if not more softball complexes could be utilized to ensure games are scheduled during the day or at better lit facilities? |

| Oct. 25 TexasTransplant Men's 70 516 posts | r The Chavez complex has the worst lights I've ever played under. I haven't experienced the lights at Desert West. As you move into the older age groups, they seem to do a better job of scheduling your games at night. We played 11 games last week (65+) at Chavez and Desert West , but all were in full daylight. |
| Oct. 25 birdie Men's 70 802 posts | r We played the 630 game at Desert West against Yeager Blue this year and the lights were terrible. Their right center fielder had 4 or 5 balls hit that he never reacted to until they hit the fence or ground. Lucky that nobody was hurt. we were able to see a little bit better than they were.
