Hello Gentlemen,

The CSMS tournament is approaching fast and we need players and teams. So far we have the following

1 team 55+
3 teams in 60+
4 teams in 65+
2 teams 70+

There are a couple of maybes and some teams still need players. Both travel and CSMS teams are welcome. As was the case in Mike Church we can combine part teams. If you have part of a team or just want to play on any team as a single please reach out to Graham. Jaycee has kindly donated the diamonds. Time to take advantage!

Hi Monday Rec League Players

Due to the shortage of players that has been reported to Borden for this long weekend, it has been decided that the Monday July 3rd games are cancelled and will be replayed at a later time.
Sorry for the short notice for those that had planned to attend.

I hope everyone has a great Canada Day Long Weekend.

Cheers All

Hello Everyone,

A Miken softball glove was found this morning at the Triwood diamond. We assume this glove was left after last nights, AA games between the Cubs and Rangers.

Rick Anderson from our ground crew place the glove inside the lock box at the Triwood diamond.

A reminder to everyone, if any equipment is discovered, please leave it in the lock box at the diamond where it was found.

Thanks Rick, for sending me the information.

Cheers Everyone

Hi League,

A valued member of our CSMS 55+ family and Alberta Softball in General, Bill Alexander, passed away on Sunday June 18th.
At this time no official announcement has been made and no funeral will be held, and according to Bill’s Sister, this was at Bill’s request. Bill wished for his ashes to be spread in Sparwood where his parents are buried.

Garth Border will be meeting with Bill’s sister when she arrives in Calgary and an announcement may be produced at that time.
I can say that Bill joined CSMS 55+ in 1998 and was in his 26th year of service with our League.

Any further information will be passed along as it comes available.
Please join me in remembering a Legend in the Softball Community.

On Behalf of the entire Calgary Senior Men’s SloPitch 55+ League

Rest in Peace Bill. You will be Greatly Missed.

Paul McNeil
