Just what it says!
The layout of this site is simple and straightforward. No razzle-dazzle, just a tidy way of honoring outstanding athletes over age 50 in the sport. As the President's messages notes, "You only grow old when you stop playing."
A list of inductees is long and alphabetized, so it's neat to see if someone from your state is included. However, there are no photos or background write-ups on any of these selected people! Also, so few women. Disappointing!
Reading the requirements is important for anyone interested. A minimum number of active playing years and national achievements are only part of the prerequisites! The good news is managers, sponsors, commissioners/directors, and "pioneers" are eligible for consideration as well.
In any case, nomination forms are available. Be warned, they ask for references and press clippings!
Perhaps the best section is Links, connecting to seven associations (well, six directly) that sanction senior softball. Players can find out which organization may suit them best, while fans or friends can see where and when upcoming tournaments are.
