2014 Season Starts
The Olde Tymers Softball league started its 17th season on May 1st.
Steve Ackerman conducted a short memorial ceremony for fellow player Norm McLaren whom we lost last fall. Steve spoke of Norm's belief that the impossible is always possible with the right attitude. Norm's wife Diane was in attendance.
After a prayer by Steve, the opening day festivities were turned over to President Bo Wood who introduced a special guest to throw out the first pitch. Long-time OTS member Mike Carta retired from his coaching duties this year, but judging from the pitch he tossed, he may be back as a pitcher next year.
This year we have 156 players belonging to 12 teams sponsored by local businesses. We have set another record for the number ofparticipants. An upcoming News Item will introduce our new sponsors.
Edward Jones and Colonial East started the season with impressive wins over Robinson Furniture (15 - 1) and Peppers Tavern (15 - 3) respectively. B & E Tires and Delmarva LTCI dispensed with Ocean View Family Restaurant (8 -1 ) and American Legion Post #24 (7 - 2), while Fox's Pizza Den and James Joyce snuck out wins against All Out Sports (5 - 2) and Dynamic Physical Therapy (6 - 5).
The regular season runs through the end of August, and is followed by a 12-team tournament. Be sure to check out the standings as the season progresses, and come out to support your favorite team.
Games are played on Tuesdays and Thursdays on the Church of God fields at Routes 113 and 26 in Dagsboro. See the Home page of this website for directions and additional information.

The Board of Directors acted on several By-Law additions prior to the 2014 Draft. The minutes from this meeting and further details can be found on the Meeting Minutes webpage.
Here is a summary of the new rules:
- A player can only be intentionally walked once per game.
- A batter hitting a ball over the outfield fence for a home run only needs to touch first base. Any players on base at the time need to touch the next base.
- Players are allowed to use any glove in any fielding position.
- Players are allowed to slide head first if they so choose.
