Bean Bag Baseall SENIOR OLYMPIANS!

For the last two months, our Senior Olympic Baseball Team has been practicing day and night to get ready for the 2011 Senior Olympics!  The Country Club Village Vipers had a fantastic time and made an amazing showing!  We competed against 15 other teams and were one of two teams competing for the very first time. 

Tom was our team Captain and took a minute before our first game to give a pep talk and go over last minute rule changes and reminders.

Our first team was from Camp Aldersgate.  Jim flipped the coin.  CCV won the coin toss and let Aldersgate "Bat" first.

This Bean Bag Baseball board was like nothing we had ever seen before!

Jim was our Scorekeeper.  To his right is Stacey, the Scorekeeper for Aldersgate.

We even had our own cheering section!

After the game, we said our "Good Games" to Camp Aldersgate.  They were a WONDERFUL team and we were so lucky to have such great sports to play with in our first game.  They were friendly and cheered right along with us!  We are looking forward to seeing them again next year!

We won our first game in overtime!  Bill (Pictured on the left) scored a Home Run that let us win the game and advance to the next bracket!  Here we are taking a break before the second game.

Our unofficial mascot!  This Stick Bug rode with Jim all the way from Country Club Village to the Olympics!

The room was packed!  8 teams played 4 games at any given time.

Our second game proved to be much for us.  We had a ton of fun, but unfortunately, we did not proceed to the next round.

Cal put all he had into the second game!

This is the trophy that we hope to bring home next year!

We had a wonderful time.  We have plans to build a board that looks like the one we played on here and get ready for the next round of Senior Olympics!  But in the meantime? 

We hear there is a rumor about a Bean Bag Baseball Tournament in Little Rock.....

Watch out, Little Rock-We've got our eyes on you!
