Mother's Day Classic. Impending bad weather looms here on Sunday. We are running ahead of schedule in the bracket. Please b prepared to play 20 minutes earlier than scheduled game times in order to get as much of the event in as possible.
May 14, 2023 - 04:07pm
redid both age groups. Eliminated 8p games. Please take a look to be sure of your game times
May 12, 2023 - 05:22pm
Following on up on today's earlier message. The revised schedule is live. We have moved to Mesquite Girls complex. It is turf. We lost a 10u squad. Most teams's schedules have changed a little. Tried not impact early games. Some teams play early and late - not optimal, but when balancing changes and losing a field this is where we are. [email protected]

The forecast is bad for the next couple of days and we have the opportunity to move the event to a turf complex, so we are going to. The 2023 Mother's Day Classic will now be at the Mesquite Girls Softball Complex. 1717 Mckenzie St Mesquite, Texas 75181. It is not optimal because we lose a field and the complexes are not close, but to have any real chance to play we need to move. Instead of 5 fields we'll have both age groups on 4 fields, so the schedule will have to be adjusted. We are working on that. The early games on fields 1, 2, 3 and 4 should stay the same. Games on field 5 will move later. We'll get that out as soon as we can. The schedule has not changed yet. Please standby. [email protected]
