Frank Conway Huie
Obituary
It is with great sadness
that we announce the death of another one of our
softball buddies, Frank Conway Huie
(Melbourne, Florida), born in Savannah, Georgia, who
passed away leaving family and friends on February
16, 2021, at the age of 76. Conway was one of the
top softball players in both the Monday and Thursday
night leagues. He also was one of the best players
on more than one Florida Half Century tournament
teams, he retired form softball several years ago.
Conway will be missed by many of us that had him as
a team mate and friend. A celebration of life was
held on Wednesday, February 24th 2021 at 6:00 PM at
the Tomoka Christian Church (344 Emerson Dr NW, Palm
Bay, FL 32907). In lieu of flowers donations can be
made to Tomoka Church.

Understanding How Teams are Drafted in our League
Many of the players have asked how the Board organizes the teams
consistent with the goal of providing evenly balanced teams. The
procedures the Board has followed for the past several seasons have
resulted in more than one team coming to the last night of the season
with a chance to win the championship.
At the end of each season the managers rate their players from 1 to 6.
The ratings encompass hitting, throwing, fielding, running and general
softball knowledge. The Board uses these rating to organize the teams
for the next season. We begin by rating the players by position. The
top 24 rated outfielders are placed on the board. The top rated player
goes to team 1, the next rated goes to team 2 all the way through 24.
The six managers look at these ratings and agree that they are as even
as possible. The four outfielders ratings are then averaged. The
lowest rated team then gets the highest rated shortstop. After the
shortstops are assigned in order, the teams are averaged again. The
same procedure continues through pitcher, 1B, 2B, 3B and middle fielder.
All players not yet assigned are then assigned in descending order by
rating. Some of these players are catchers, some are fill in
outfielders, others are fill in infielders. Accommodations are
generally made for players who request to play with another player and,
for some who request not to play with another player. Everyone who has
registered and paid by the date the teams are organized are assigned to
a team.
After this procedure is finished, the six managers make any minor
changes they can agree on to ensure the teams are as even as possible.
Up to this point the managers do not know which team they are going to
get. Thus it behooves them to agree that the teams as as evenly
balanced as possible. After they agree, the six managers then draw lots
to determine the order in which they pick their team. The manager who
draws number 1 picks first, through number 6.
After the managers have picked, a few changes are made to accommodate
the rating of the manager and the position he plays. For example, a
manager who is a top rated outfielder may displace one of the
outfielders assigned to his team. That outfielder may become the fifth
outfielder for that team or may get traded to another team to keep the
competitive balance.
Once the managers are assigned and all agree that it is balanced as
possible, the teams are set, the players are notified and the games
begin.

Check out the “Stretching Exercises 1 & 2 below to
help you prevent injury by using the proper stretching techniques.
It is very important, especially at our
age, to show up at the field prior to the games and spend time jogging
around the field at a slow pace, just to get warmed up prior to stretching
out your leg muscles; this will help prevent leg injuries during the games. Also, it is a great idea to purchase a
pair of “compression shorts” to wear under your softball shorts or pants;
they really do make a difference.

Dugout Protocol For Using
Another's Bat
By Bill Kunzweiler
One of the decisions players must make when joining a softball
league pertains to equipment choices. So often they hastily go out
and buy a new bat or glove without the benefit of others experience;
and often they are unhappy with the performance of their
acquisition, especially in the area of bat choice. Those
“Old-Timers”, who play a lot generally know what works the best and
where to get it!
As most know, online internet purchases from sites like “Direct
Sports”, if you mention FHS (Florida Half Century) softball, there
is a significant discount. That’s where most get their Miken Ultra
II’s, which brings up another subject and that is “dugout protocol”.
It’s always appropriate to ask
someone if you want to use their bat; never just grab someone’s bat
without their permission. Especially since good composite bats
cost a lot and wear out after so many swings. Generally they start
at $185.00 on sale and go up from there. So as a matter of team
protocol and respect, always get permission to use another’s
equipment!
Please checkout the three articles in the Batter's Box, that
Lou Jiannine has written for our league, he has provided us with
some very valuable bat information.

A LITTLE SOFTBALL TEAM HISTORY
Dodgers
Shirts Given to
Undefeated Team Players
On Monday
night retired team shirts were distributed to the
Dodgers players of the only team in BSSA league history to
record an undefeated season at 24-0. The Summer 2009
season league championship team, the
McMaster Construction Dodgers (pictured below), set a few league
records that season; in addition to being undefeated, they were only the
second team to ever score 20+ victories in a season, they also scored a
record 182 runs more than their opponents, and they were the
stingiest team in the league to score against. What a Defense!!!
The
Dodgers dedicated the last four games of the season to teammate
Paul Osiecki, who had died during the season, he was the catcher and
backup pitcher for the
Dodgers.
Team manager,
Dan Deratany attributed their success to their excellent defensive
efforts, in addition to being a group of great guys who had terrific
chemistry together, not a lot of super stars, but a lot of great
enthusiastic team players. “Every player on that team encouraged and
cheered each other on, when you have that combination, along with a very
vocally supportive fan base in the stands weekly, it makes you play better
and you just can’t be anything other than a winning team, it’s all about
team effort and team spirit.”
