TODAY WE ARE HAVING A PARISH SPONSORED BEANBAG BASEBALL TOURNAMENT.
WE HAVE 16 TEAMS PARTICIPATING TODAY.
THIS IS A SPECIAL TOURNAMENT PLAYED HERE AT POND OF PLAYGROUND.
A LOT OF THE SENIORS IN OUR AREA GOT TEAMS TOGETHER, APPROXIMATELY ABOUT 400 PEOPLE HERE.
IT'S LIVELY AND IT'S A LOT OF FUN.
WE HAVE SOME AVID SOFTBALL PLAYERS THAT ARE PLAYING.
THEY'RE JUST HAVING A GREAT TIME.
AS YOU CAN HEAR, WE HAVE A LOT OF FUN.
YOU'VE HEARD A BEANBAG INTO THE THE BOARD AND THAT'S THE BASE.
YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO RUN TO THE BASES.
UH, PEOPLE WHO HAVE CANES, WALKERS, WHEELCHAIRS, UH, I'D EVEN TAKE SOMEBODY ON A STRETCHER IF THEY WANTED TO PLAY.
SEEING SOME OF THE PEOPLE RANGING FROM THE AGES OF 65 TO 99, 99 YEARS OLD.
THE SENIORS THAT ARE HERE TODAY PLAYING THIS GAME ARE VERY, VERY SERIOUS.
YEAH, I GOT ALL RUN AND THEY KNOW THE RULES.
I'M STILL PLAYING AND THEY WILL QUICKLY CALL YOU OUT IF YOU MISS SOMETHING, DOUBLE THE OBJECT IS TO GET OUT, PLAY, PARTICIPATE, BE WITH YOUR PEERS, HAVE FUN, AND YOU GET SOME EXERCISE.
GETTING EVERYBODY TOGETHER, WATCHING EVERYBODY TO BE ACTIVE, HAVING FUN, INTERACTING, JUST LIKE A REGULAR BASEBALL GAME.
THIS IS AN AWESOME OPPORTUNITY TO MEET OTHER SENIORS.
I HAVE A LOT OF FUN PLAYING FEEDBACK.
