NEW PLAYER PRACTICE, TRAINING & CONDITIONING
Every Tuesday and Thursday through March 22 new players can come out to Ogden Park at 1:00 PM for open practices. You can expect to do some conditioning exercises, practice hitting, throwing and fielding. Most new participants have not put a glove on in years and need to slowly condition themselves and reintroduce themselves to catching, throwing and hitting. The new player practices are designed to slowly get people in condition prior to the season start in April. If you haven’t signed up as yet for Senior Softball and would like to take part call Mike Abernathy at 791-2804 or 470-2804
Annual Meeting - Results
The major topic at the Annual meeting centered around the proposal to reorganize the league. After much discussion, a hand vote overwhelmingly favored reorganization for the coming season.
The Board of Directors will make the final decision and also decide on the format for a reorganization of the teams.
Since the website blog is no longer active, please e-mail any comments, opinions or suggestions regarding reorganization to Mike Abernathy at micabby42@ec.rr.com.
New Web Host
If you have had trouble connecting to the softball website, it is because there has been a change in the web host. If you access the website by clicking on a “favorite” site (www.wilmingtonseniorsoftball.com), it won’t connect since it is looking for the old host. You simple need to delete www.wilmingtonseniorsoftball.com from your list of favorites, then, just put it (www.wilmingtonseniorsoftball.com) back again as a favorite. Now it will connect and point toward the new host.
