Last weekend I played in the Windsor softball tournament for a hybrid team made up of players from three different teams in the Bristol League. It is easily one of my favourite weekends of the year (having really enjoyed it last year too). Marla did not come and camp with me this time, but she and Griff did come to watch us play on Sunday. Our team, the Grandslammers - unofficially called the Friendly Slamming Raccoons - had five games on Saturday and three on Sunday, and while we did not do as well as we would have hoped or even expected, we all had a great time. I was able to play in four games on Sat and one-and-a-half on Sun before my knee brace broke. It was incredibly annoying but at least I got to play most of the weekend.
This photo was taken during the fifth game on Saturday (my fourth of the day) and is a shot of me just after I hit the ball. I hit two home-runs in this game, but I don't think this is one of them.
Incidentally, I am currently in the process of trying to get the broken knee brace replaced by the NHS, which looks like it might be a struggle. In the meantime I will be wearing my old one.
