Update December 3, 2007
Time to Sign up for DomeBall !!!
Players!
Domeball season starts Monday, December 3, 2007 and runs to Monday, March 31, 2008. The season is 18 games. Games start at 8pm sharp.**
Feel free to tell your friends, there is no age limit or restrictions.
Wood bats, turf shoes or sneakers, warm clothing. The game temp is 50 degrees.
This year the umpires are paid $70 and the Dome gets $500
We use 3-4 baseballs per game so expenses run about $585. The roster has 22 nightly players so the fee this year is $27 per game. Email using the below link for info as to where to send the check or other specific questions.
Until the Dome rents the left field area, we will be able to work out there from 7-8pm, to get loose and forget that winter sucks. I am renting it for $25, so if you use the warmup area from 7-8, please throw a $1 bill into the Blue Box.
As usual, we will give out the Terminator award (ERA KING) and the Splendid Splinter Award (BA). We would LOVE to present a Home Run Title Award, but nobody has ever hit 2 homers in a season. The WEDGE in center field is 250' from Home plate, so that is hard to understand. We have a flurry of taters in the early games, then nothing! As a matter of fact, we have seen a steady decline in Wedge Shots over the years, from a High of 9 (2003-4) to a low of 2 (2006-7). If we give the award out this year we will call it the "Icehouse" in honor of the departed Icehouse.
The League Champ will be determined the last night of play. This is such a dubious award that we will call it the 'Order ot the Knight (Man) ' and enter your name in the history books with those you will follow.
You can sign up right now. The first 22 idio..I mean players to notify me are in the opening night lineup.
Thanks
