We have 10 of our 15 league teams entered and a number of 'pick-ups' from other clubs with our rosters expanded.
If your work or social schedule hasn't allowed you to play this year, you will be missed. But you can still participate! You can come out an volunteer to work the bar. If you show up unannounced and offer your assistance, I'm almost positive that you will not be turned away. If the bar is fully stacked with volunteers, you can buy a pint and watch some great ball! Here are a few highlights to look forward to:
- Games from "The Big Three" leagues, Tottenham Old-Timers Slo-Pitch League, The Tottenham Ladies Lob-Ball League and The Tottenham Mens Slo-Pitch League.
- Saturday July 6, 12:15 (C2): The homerun derby! Come see the 'big boppers' from Tottenham and surrounding areas try to out blast each other!
- Saturday July 6, 4:00 (C2): The Tottenham Old-Timers alumni game. Come see the stars of yester-year renew acquaintances and settle old bets!
- Sunday July 7, 1:30 (C2): The crown jewel of the weekend, the All Star game! Featuring the best of the mens league against the best of the Old-Timers league. Betting windows open at noon.
- Sunday July 7, 2:45 (C2): Good sportsmanship and camaraderie comes to its conclusion in the Tottenham Old-Timers final!
That's most of the fun stuff for now! Before I lay out the full schedule, I would like to remind you of some of our key sponsors and will hope that you try your best to support them through donation or business. They do a lot good work in support of our community and I'm sure they'd appreciate a tip of the cap & a hand shake.

MORE ON Help The Kids!:
All the Infomation that you would care to know about Help The Kids is available on our League Website. However, here are a few critical components and why it is important to our league:
Mandate: Provide funding for registration and/or equipment that will enable youth (under 18) residing in the Tottenham and surrounding area to participate in organized sports or other activities that will enhance their personal growth and well-being.
Value Statement: The HTKP Committee and its sponsor, the Tottenham Oldtimers Slo-Pitch League, believe that participation in organized sports and other positive personal growth activities are an essential component to the development of the youth of our community.
Objectives: 1) Raise or secure sufficient monies to fund all referrals or applicants to the program. 2) Assess referrals or applicants for funding while maintaining strict confidentiality. 3) Allocate monies as fairly and equitably as available funding allows. 4) Promote the HTKP Committee and its mandate to organized groups and social service organizations that could potentially refer applicants.
We trust that you'll find the mandate, values and objectives to be as important to our community's youth as we do. Thanks, PLAY BALL!
