Snowbird Softball





After a three-year layoff from softball, Tom decided to give softball another try. When we arrived in Casa Grande, we discovered that RV Parks in the area have two leagues. Senior league includes teams in the age range from 55 to 65; super seniors, ages 65 and over.

Super seniors are allowed to have a few players under 65. After discussions with team managers, Tom started the season playing for one team in each division, but ended the season playing only for the Sundance Yellow Jackets. While the Yellow Jackets record during league play was not sterling, the team finished second in the league tournament.

Tom is second from the left, front row in the Yellow Jackets' picture; second from left, back row in the Retreads' picture. The final picture is of Tom and his chief fan!
