These people get it. While I have never quite grasped the entire concept behind these Games I like what they do in getting people from around the State together. And they are doing it at LU this year. Big kudos to all those who are involved on the LU side because they are apparently making a HUGE impression on the participants and the organizers.
I think this is the kind of collaboration that could really make LU really special. So again a special shout out to those involved!

You're going to really make his head explode with that kind of praise.

Does anyone know where to find softball schedule for Commonwealth Games ?

I am afraid the media will ignore softball, and focus on disk golf, pickleball and goat roping this weekend.

I heard that they moved baseball to last weekend, without making any changes to the website (which still shows stuff this weekend). Did they move that too?

Yes, baseball was last weekend. I saw some schedule that said softball is July 23-24. I find it hard to believe they not playing July 22. Last report, there are 56 teams entered in girl's fast pitch. They also have men's slow pitch.

I am hoping that wasn't a slight toward pickleball, CJ. At my age, I find that to be one of favorites to play. :mrgreen:

I've never played--or even seen--pickleball. Might be time to watch a YouTube video of it.
