Guys and Girls needed for CoEd Softball Team
Our team, "SLap n' Tickle", is looking for 2 guys and 1 girl to fill out our roster for this season. We play on Sunday nights on the Lincoln Park fields between 5 and 10. We are looking for competetive players but people that still like to have fun and go out for some drinks after the game. Right now we are about 50/50 guys and girls and girls. We have quite a few new people so don't feel like you'll be out of the "circle". Message me if you are interested in joining! Our first game is 09/12. The cost will be about $65 per person for a 6 game + 1 Playoff game season and a T-shirt.

Female softball player looking for a fall team
I recently moved up from Miami where I played on a social, coed rec league for about 4 years all year round. I played catcher and was the assistant/backup coach. I really enjoy playing and the team atmosphere of having fun and enjoying winning but not stressing out about losing. I'd love to join a fun team to meet some fun people. Please contact me if you have an opening or need a sub.

Need a few more to make a team
I just moved to Chicago a few weeks ago, I can get prob 6-7 people to commit and looking to fill the rest of the team, i was thinking maybe 12. We all work for the airlines. In addition we'll need a few subs due to irregular schedules. We are all 22-30yo, not all that competitive and like to have fun. Guys or girls welcome. This is the first team I have put together. Add me as a friend if you are interested. Preferred location, Lincoln Park and Lakeview, Leaning towards Tue or Wed but not set on it. Be around $75, maybe more. No Douchebags or meatheads please.
