The Silver Sluggers Softball winter/spring season will begin on Monday, March 4, and it will run until Monday, May 20.
“Join our senior softball (league) to experience the thrill of the game, the joy of being part of a community, and the benefit of an active lifestyle,” stated the parks and recreation department on social media.
The league is open to men and woman who are 50 years of age or older. During the season, all players will meet at 9 a.m. on Mondays at Shocker Park, which is located at 2371 SE 44th Court in Ocala.
