LATE BREAKING NEWS



The Tuesday and Thursday Leagues now sport a "snowbird" team. This adds a 7th team to each league. Teams 1-6 will alternate as the bye team through the end of the season. Team 7, the snowbirds will not have a bye in order to maximize their number of playing dates. Please check your schedule before driving to the ballfield to make sure that your team does not have a bye.

The Board has decided to END the allowance for a Tuesday or Thursday Silver League team to supply a catcher for a shorthanded opponent starting with league games in January.
