| Posted | Discussion |
| Sept. 14 Bixel 6 posts | Looking to join a 70's team in Las Vegas or Henderson. Never played senior ball.I currently play at BLD in a 18 and over league. Played hardball and softball most of my life. Infield and pitch. |
| Sept. 14 Nancy Allen Men's 55 1440 posts | Bixel, may I give you a little input? 18+ and 70+ are extremely different. Since you have never played senior softball, I know that it is hard to imagine. If you can play infield in 18+, you probably would be an asset in the oufield in 70+. It is nothing like playing outfield against young guys. On the offense side, the bats are much hotter. You would probably be an asset as a courtesy runner. You also do not want to make the classic senior rookie mistake. Never touch the plate to score. There will be a line or extra scoring plate instead depending on the field. Anyway you might want to at least talk with Skate if you haven't already because not a lot of 70s use the Internet. I have a couple of them here that call me and ask me to do it for them. Good luck. It's fun to play with kids your own age. |

| Sept. 16 Bixel 6 posts | Thanks Nancy Allen and VegasBob. I'll try to make it to Lorenzi Tues. I used to play softball at Lorenzi in the sixties when it was called Twin Lakes. |
