2023 Dates TBD
Did you ever want to win a medal for your softball talent and skill? Club members have that opportunity each year when the Club hosts Señors Games; two days that feature nine events divided up for each age level and gender. See the event list below.
Hit For Distance - How far can you hit off a pitching machine, AKA Old Sparky, that throws nothing but strikes?
Hit For Accuracy - You will be expected to hit off Old Sparky to left, left center, center, right center, and right.
Ground Ball Fielding - The machine has had a long day and by the time Ground Ball Fielding comes up, Old Sparky is getting tired and players usually take advantage fielding easy grounders.
Fly Ball Catching - Sparky will have you chasing fly balls. The more you catch, the more points you earn.
Home To First - Think you are fast? Try your skills against the Club's fastest runners. In the younger age group, the home to first record is 3.6 seconds. Our top woman runner did a record setting 4.5 seconds.
Home To Home - More strenuous than other events, the Home To Home is dominated by the 50 - 70 year old runners. Times range from 14 seconds to 16.5 seconds depending on age.
Pitch For Accuracy - You will be given a chance to pitch 8 times from the pitchers circle to home plate to see how many strikes you can throw. Only one person has yet to throw 8 out of 8 but 7 has been done twice.
Third To First Throw - For safety reasons, your throw from third base will be to a stationary pitching screen set up at first base. Hit the screen on the fly for a point.
Center Field Throw - A difficult event even for the golden arms. It takes strength and accuracy to hit a six-foot target from 150 feet out in center field.
