The
Garrett Drive Wiffleball League will be having their first major spring training session for the year today. Up to this point there had only been a few small sessions but now that the weather has shaped up and college semesters will son be over the GDWL appears to be getting ready for some wiffleball. The league may see a few new faces as they try to make up for the loss of their 4th team from last season, the Neapolitan Creamers. Kevin Hancart (successful rookie on the Green Bears team last year) has started his own franchise called the Dirty Birds to fill in the gap. Returning this year are the Green Bears, Hot Dogs (2010 champions), and the Parasites. Some newer players will either be used for another team or two or to really beef up the 4 existing teams. The league also has a new field with a much higher fence, which should be interesting. And they will be filming their games in High Definition. 2011 looks to be promising for the GDWL. No word yet on when exactly their season starts, only that it will be in mid-May sometime.

Did anybody catch the stream of the PWBL draft? Wanted to check it out, but wasn't around the computer when it happened. I'm interested in how well it worked out and translated over the internet.
ReplyDeleteSadly, I didn't see it either. Hopefully they recorded the highlights.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure exactly how many people watched it, but I do know a number of guys from the league watched. We tried to save it, but at an hour and 30 minutes ustream would not save it.
