Discussion: Albuquerque land of enchantment

A little heads up to those that are staying in the Albuquerque area we had a great accommodations at our Airbnb, but last night all three of our vehicles were broken into. It was definitely professionals because no windows were broken. It was just the doors were opened and the cars were rummage through, so don’t leave anything at all valuable inside the car.

Then probably not happening one way or the other. If you were moved up, not likely they will reverse without complete roster do over for at least a year.

Discussion: Doc Doxtader took one in the grill in Prescott

Hi Everyone,
I wanted to let you know that one of our softball family caught a line drive in the mouth this past Saturday at the softball tournament, as a runner.

He needs to have extensive dental work, his name
Doc Doxtader.

If you’re able to help with his Dental costs in anyway a GoFundMe account has been set up.

Discussion: Arizona Scorpions 70 major is looking to add a couple of players


Injury and illness have sidelined a number of our teammates. Specifically, we are looking for a league age 70+ middle infielder and an outfielder. We do not have room for any 69-year-olds for the remander of this season.

Our next tournaments are Albuquerque, Flagstaff, Prescott or Aurora, and Vegas. Please contact me if you or someone you know has an interest.

Before anyone goes on the board and bashes Dave about the schedule. He was involved in a major accident in St George. He is recovering and working on getting the schedule out shortly. Prayers for all those involved.

Topic: Tournaments
Discussion: Winter "Worlds"

It is actually a fairly simple explanation. Most players have a general idea on what they are going to spend going to a tourney. In my opinion, most tourneys held 300+ miles from your home will cost you approximately between 300 and 700 per person. Plus wear and tear on your body if you try and save money and drive. 6-10 hrs both ways. Don't forget a larger number of players are working past 65.

We vote on every tourney we play. We take into consideration the historical number of teams attending, cost per player, and of course our overall health.

Overall the cost of attending a tourney has risen every year regardless of the governing party. We are blessed in being an Arizona based team, which gives us opportunity to play year round. My personal research when trying to go to tournaments east of Ms or over 500 miles, my personal costs would have been in excess of $750.

Probably the only reasonable suggestion, would be rebranding and change the tournament names. Winter Nationals East and West would be more of an accurate statement of fact.
