Rekindle an old flame
Our bodies tell us that we’re not able to catch, hit, run or throw like we use to in our youth; maybe haven’t played ball in a number of years, but Holy Toledo! in our minds it’s spring and we’re making over-the-head Willie Mays catches, hitting Mickey Mantle-like moonshots–we just need the means of doing it again. Age be damned, it’s time to play ball. We are the Retreads.
Interested in comraderie and competing on the field? If you're game, grab your glove and join us for senior softball.
PLAY BALL!
AGAIN.

RETREADS SWEPT
The Retreads (1-17) took on Lynchburg on July, 6th at Darden Towe Park, playing in hot and humid conditions, and unfortunately dropped both ends of a doubleheader.
​
Game one was a low scoring affair with both teams tied at five after five innings. Unfortunately Lynchburg pulled out a 10-9 victory; the Retreads have now lost seven 1 run games this season..
​
Game two, Charlottesville–home team–put five runs on the board in the first inning, but was only able to score eight more runs over the final six frames for a 17-13 Lynchburg win. Kudos to Tony Vance, who pitched both games in the sweltering heat..
