“You don’t quit playing softball be-
cause you get old; you get old because
you quit playing softball!”
We invite you to beautiful Del Webb Field
to watch and/or play one of the few specta-
tor sports in Sun City Texas! Come and
have some fun! Our grandstand cover
makes watching games more comfortable
and enjoyable.
Our informal winter season is underway
with a single game at 11 a.m. onMondays
and Thursdays. Everyone plays during
these games and the cost is only $5 per
player for the season. There are also regu-
lar practices and pick-up games at 10 a.m.
on Tuesdays and Fridays. We invite all
new and existing residents to check out
our senior slo-pitch softball. There are
also very active and self-supporting trav-
eling teams, the Sun City Warriors, for
the more competitive players.
You are invited to also check the Softball
Club website and the club bulletin board
at Del Webb Field for additional informa-
tion, schedules and calendar of events.
