SUNDAY REVIEW: LA PARKS AND REC SOFTBALL

When I was 12 all I wanted to do was play Olympic softball. Though my collegiate and olympic dreams will never be realized, I still have a great love for the sport. Which it why I play rec league softball once a week. I'm cheating on this post. In the summer, I play in a company league so it's free but the reasons I play are still the same.

REVIEW: LA PARKS AND RECREATION SOFTBALL
Parks and Rec softball is a great way to meet new people, get a some light exercise and kick butt. There are 4 leagues:
-Open (mostly guys, some women)
-Co-Ed
-Women Only
-Over 40.

I play in a co-ed league where things tend to be a little bit more lax and fun. The guys are much more into it than most of the girls. This can be discouraging especially if you are new to a team but don't worry, generally you will be fine.

All you need is a glove and $370 to register a team. Don't have a whole team? No worries, you can call the Parks & Rec office and register as a free agent. If you are new in town, this might be the best way to go.

Play Ball!
