Softball Team/League

Hello!

Looking to join a softball team/league - preferably co-ed and not 100% competitive.

The city's rec page seems to want $635 to play...is that real? I've never heard of such an outrageous price to play softball.

Anyone have any alternatives to taking out a loan?

Looks like that fee is for team registration - I don't see a spot for Free Agent reg - so here I am asking: put me in coach!

Should we start a reddit Wednesday co-ed softball team??

Free agency was available last year, give the office a call. I’m guessing it’s just not properly set up on the back end after the transition away from TeamSideline.

I tried to join a softball team last spring. What a scam. The ball is actually very hard, not soft at all. First game of the season i hit a sick header and got a concussion. I assumed this was a fluke and the ball is usually much softer, so i hit a header again at my next game. Fucking ball was hard as a rock and i was in the hospital for a week. Fuck this dumbass sport, never playing again.

That happened to my mom before I was born but luckily I escaped out the back door.
