Softball

It's been a long standing tradition for the clerks to organize a softball team each year. I took on the managerial duties this year. The league is pretty well organized; we've got uniforms (with numbers), rosters, lineups, and rules. The rule book is ridiculously big. But we manage to have a good time nonetheless. Most teams are out there for the same reason: to have fun.

There are two other teams of former clerks and associated friends. One team is called The Deciders and the other is Ninjustice. We are the Bench Warmers. A clever name, if I do say so myself. Our jerseys were designed by Mike Russell (a fellow clerk) and they are pretty darn kickass.

We play at the parkstrip near downtown. The field is pretty nice and we have a great time.

Currently we are 3 and 3. There are six teams in our league and we'll play each a number of times. Now we're starting to replay the same teams. Time to move up in the standings!

Coaching has been a decent amount of work. We have a huge team of 27 players. I've made it a priority to get everyone into every game, so we have some pretty large roster changes during each game.

Callie got some great pictures at our last game:
