LEAGUE PLAY STARTS TOMORROW
The 2017 season league play begins tomorrow with 10 teams playing ball. Team #11, Manager Tommy Hamilton has a Bye. Listed below are some reminders to make sure the opening games go smoothly:
- The team listed last on the schedule is the home team and will wear their Silver shirt and sit in the Third base dugout. The visiting team will wear there Blue shirt and sit in the First base dugout. If you are in doubt about which shirt to wear, bring both of them to the ball park. New shirts will be provided to all players this year.
- Wear your Winter Haven Senior Softball hat from last year. If you did not play last year, you will be given a new hat. If you played last year and do not have a WHSS hat, they will be available for purchase this year. WHSS shirts and hats are required for league play.
- Be at the ball park no later than 9:00 AM. Your manager needs to know how many players he has so he can request a pool player if one is available.
- Go to your field that is shown on the schedule. It is not necessary to sign in during the league play. If there is a schedule change, it will be posted on a board at the Commissioners table located next to the men's restroom and will be posted on the website if we know ahead of time of the schedule change.
- There is a schedule change for the National League tomorrow. The City of Winter Haven is still working on rebuilding Field A for the Polk State College girls softball team. They anticipate those improvements will be completed before the end of the week. There will be three team games on Field C and Field E. Team #2 will play on Field C and Team #1 will play on Field E. These games will not count in the standings and will be made up later on in the season.
- Kentucky Fried Chicken, one of our great sponsors, is providing lunch tomorrow. The Board of Directors are providing Cookies and Refreshments.
Thanks.
Don Witmer, Commissioner
