Sunday Morning Men's / Spring 2019

Post by sixofdiamonds »

The official Sunday Morning Men's schedule for the Spring 2019 season is now posted. Access the schedule from the main Softball America webpage, call the game line (215-822-8777, option 1 for A and B North Divisions, option 8 for B East, West and South Divisions), or click here... Sunday Morning Men's


The Sunday Men's schedule is a bear to produce and I appreciate the league's patience. Field permits have to be approved. That takes time. Then I need to wait until the township and school districts figure out which dates will be no play dates. Then, managers need to send me a firm commitment as to whether their teams will be returning. I did my best to produce as fair and balance a schedule as I could while addressing certain manager, umpire, and scorekeeper needs. Not an easy task. All in all I think the schedule is a thing of beauty.

It's not practical to play a 6 team league (A division) over the course of 7 weeks. Too many byes each week so the A Division will get all their byes out of the way April 14th thereby helping with the shortage of fields that week (Hatfield, Carpenter, and both Lukens are dark). The B North will play at the Quarry on the 14th.

Look over the schedule. I've checked it numerous times, but at this point my eyes are blurred out and my brain is mostly mush.. Hopefully, I didn't miss anything and there are not conflicts.

The Sunday Men's league will be divided into 5 divisions consisting of A, B North, B East, B West, and B South. Teams will play teams in their respective divisions. Qualifying teams in each division will enter a playoff tournament. The final 2 teams in each division will play one another in a best of three finals.

There may be room for 2 additional teams.

This is encouraging...
Good morning Les,

The township is putting $20,000 into our 7 ball fields this year. The company is starting Monday and hopes to be done April 1st. Redefining the edges, rebuilding and installing clay bricks at home plate to prevent holes, new bases and anchors, adding material where needed, etc… Lets just pray for less rain this year. Hope this answers your concerns.

Best Wishes,

Ian R. Hammer MPA, CPSI
Assistant Director of Public Works

The school district has closed CB West for April 7th to apply an herbicide to the grounds. CB West games have been moved from CB West to Groveland Elementary. Groveland is in good shape this year. CB District Facilities Manager John Ciavola has been kind enough to assist in getting the ball field ready for us. A revised schedule has been posted online.

A map of the location of the ball field can found here…

I apologize for any inconvenience.
