Slow Pitch Tourney

This weekend we are playing in a charity co-ed slow pitch tournament to benefit the Baden volunteer firefighters. Marnie and I thought that it would be fun, and after feeling out a few neighbours, decided to organized a "street team" to enter it. We have most of the neighbours playing (a few have since dropped out), and a few around the corner that we don't even really know, so it should be fun. Most of the couples have never played baseball or softball, or haven't played in 15+ years. We held a "practice" last night at the Baden Public school because people wanted to hit the ball around and get some practice catching fly balls, etc. We are guaranteed 3 games, then top team from each pool goes on to the playoffs. I'm not holding my breath to make the playoffs after seeing last night's practice, but it should be a lot of fun nonetheless! Our team name is "The Schmitt Heads", taken after our street name, of course...
There's a local band playing with pig roast and dance Saturday evening. It should be good!
