Hi League,

Just an FYI.
A League member has reached out to Say that their email account has been Hacked and fraudulent emails are being sent out and apparently several league members have already received emails from this fraudulent account.

So please do not open any emails with “nradman” anywhere in the email name. If you receive one, be sure to add it to your spam folder.

As always, we all must be diligent when opening emails and never open an attachment unless you are 100% sure of the sender.

Regards,

Paul M

Hi Everyone,

Today’s Quote
“We were the Overwhelming Underdogs”
- Yogi Berra

So with this wonderful weather, my thoughts are turning more and more to the Upcoming Softball Season. And all the other things we all love to do outside !! (Fishing, Golf, hiding the snow shovels etc etc)
I’m really looking forward to seeing all those Happy, Smiling Faces and being able to enjoy a new and wonderful Softball Season. Can’t Wait !!

That being said. A bit of Business to discuss.

So Hey, Lets keep up the good work with the Registration for the Upcoming Season. Lots of guys have signed up but many more need to "catch"up. (Yes that was a poor Pun and it was intended.)

Hi League,

I’ve had a request from Don McKillop. He is looking for a Team Picture taken of the Blue Jays during the 2015 AAA Finals. If anyone has a picture it would be appreciated if you could share it. The Blue jays played the Reds in the Final that year. So if anyone has that picture, you can send it along to myself or Don.

Oh, and the picture shown here is not the Blue Jays !!

And Hey, only 90 Days until our new season gets underway.

Cheers Everyone,

Good Morning League,

Lets Start with Quote of the Day,

“We made too many wrong mistakes.”
-Yogi Berra

There is only 98 Days until we get this new season underway. Almost time to put away the Ice Fishing Gear and the Curling Equipment and start thinking about Softball !!

So Registration is moving along very well and we are seeing Lots of New Players signing up, which is awesome.
But a couple of things for those who haven’t signed up yet. Some common questions have been asked.

- after clicking on the Large Green Button on the Website, you are directed to another page. Once you read the important messages on that page, you will see a Large Blue Line further down the page that says, ****Click Here to Register****.
After clicking that link you will be directed to the actual sign up page where you will enter in all your info. This will be the same for anyone signing up from a computer or mobile device. The only difference between a computer and mobile device is where the Large Green Button is Located on the Home Page.
- When registering with AB55, be sure to check off, Slo Pitch as well as any other sport you may be playing in. That makes it easier for us to track who has signed up with AB55
- If paying by Cheque, please be aware that our Registrar only goes to the Bank to deposit checks once every 1 or 2 weeks, depending on how many cheques are mailed. So if you notice that your check has not been processed yet, be patient, it will be.
- Anyone who wants to view Board Meeting Minutes on the Website, must be signed in or logged in to the site. Once you are signed in, look under Links on the left side of the page. Click on Meetings to it open up. The most recent minutes will be shown in blue as 2021-12-01 and 2021-11-17

As always, please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. And we will sort it out.
