Co-ed Softball Tournament

After the successful organisation of the first International Co-Ed Softball Slow pitch Tournament organised in July by the Devils Sports Club which saw participation of teams from Germany and the US embassy and the Softball Co-Ed Fast pitch Tournament organised by Mustangs Baseball and Softball Club last September.
On Sunday 11th October MABS inaugurated the new softball season when two new teams Mustangs Softball, and Mellieha Northenders took the field for an exhibition game. It was a very nice day and the spectators surely enjoyed this 7 inning match (1 Hour and 25 minute). The two teams although still lacking from game experience showed a lot of enthusiasm and at times some very nice plays like the Mustang double play which ended the 7th inning.
As the result indicates Mustangs started the game very strongly sprinting to a 10 – 0 lead after two innings, However once the Mellieha girls shrugged off their opening day jitters and managed to settle down, the game evolved into a very balanced encounter and very pleasant to watch too. Unfortunately it was a bit to late for Mellieha to stage a comeback and Mustangs ended up winning the game 19 to 5.
