- Leeds Softball Beginner Open DayAdel War Memorial Association, Leeds
Want to try something new and meet new friends? Try softball with our beginner Open Day, which is tailored to new players. No experience needed, all adults welcome!
Softball is similar to baseball, where players bat a ball and score runs by running round the bases. It's played co-ed and is really easy to learn and play, with no experience necessary. It's also a very social sport and a great way to meet tonnes of friendly people!
Whatever your fitness level, softball is super accessible, and during the day, you'll meet our community of friendly softballers as you get to grips with playing the game and get involved in a fun series of informal games.
We're recruiting for our season ahead (played on Wednesdays in Adel, north Leeds), so this is your chance to try softball out and join a team. Remember, no experience is necessary and equipment is provided!Monday 6th May
Arrive 1:30pm
