Softball Wednesdays: new players and beginners welcome

Looking to try an offbeat but fun and friendly sport?

We need you! I see you there, wanting to try something other than football, rugby or netball.

I'm Matt, Captain of the Bobcats, a softball team based in north Leeds, and member of Leeds Softball. Softball, say what? Yes, it's a bit like baseball or the r-word: rounders. Hit ball, run the bases or catch ball, get outs.

The important thing is, softball is a really fun and social sport. It doesn't require constant exertion, and if I can pick up the rules, anyone can.
We're looking for folks to join our teams in the Leeds Softball Association league this summer. And yes there are spaces on teams, though these can fill up quickly. We particularly encourage women to get involved. No experience is necessary, and before you say it, we WILL teach you to catch. And hit. And do all those fun softball things.

Our team comprises around 6 men and 6 women, making a truly inclusive sport that focuses on teamwork rather than "athletes." Teams will be looking for people of all sexes to play on Wednesdays. And not only that, but we attend social events throughout the year, including weekend tournaments (road trip!) to weekly pub quizzes. I want you to be part of that.
All new players welcome, no experience necessary!

We play every Wednesday from 6:30pm at Adel War Memorial Association (Google "Leeds Softball" for the exact playing field location - it's the top end of Bedquilts Playing Fields, Adel Ln, Adel, Leeds LS16 8DB). If you come down, enjoy it and want to keep playing, there's the chance to join our league through one of our teams.
