BWWBP Develops League

In the past we've had posts about how it's a shame that Bassett Woods Wiffle Ball Park doesn't have a league to call that wonderful field home. Well, that's over now as BWWBP will have their first fall/winter league starting this month and the season will go through December. They plan to have highlight videos with commentary throughout the season which can make for some interesting viewing considering that 99% of leagues will be done with their season. But it's nice to see that someone is reading what bit of constructive criticism that this blog has to offer. We get quoted throughout the video and they use it as inspiration to step their game up. Nice!

Missouri Park Seeks Wiffle Players

Hannibal, Missouri ---Aron Lee, of the Hannibal Parks and Recreational Department (HPRD), is doing something rarely seen before - seeking out wiffleball players. They want 5 person teams consisting of either 2 men and 3 women or 3 mean and 2 women. $100 per team. The games will be played on Tuesdays in the Admiral Coontz Recreation Center (that's right...indoors). Registration lasts until September 13 so if you live in the Hannibal area in Missouri, this is your chance to join a league. Missouri is not known for having any stable wiffleball leagues and this project could change that. They plan on playing through the fall and winter so that people will have something to do when it's cold outside. Hopefully there will be some players to meet Mr. Lee halfway and the project will take off. Lee intends on posting game results and statistics on the HPRD website. Perhaps we'll be hearing from them soon.

EDIT: There is no longer a co-ed team requirement for the league. You can have teams of all males or all females.
