Interesting. I was browsing the internet for some interesting softball news and this small article about a softball fundraiser caught my eye. Los Gatos High School girls softball program is holding a 1st annual wine tasting later this month to raise funds for their program. Now, I’ve never been to a wine tasting, (though I have friends that go regularly to these things) but I’d certainly check it out for a softball fundraiser!
Sounds like a pretty fun fundraiser if you ask me. This particular one also includes appetizers and live music – so cool!
I hope it goes well for them.
Have you heard of any unique softball fundraisers recently? If so, please leave a comment below and share them here. I’m sure many programs out there are looking for ideas for the upcoming season.

I came across a pretty cool announcement by Oklahoma University yesterday. They will be broadcasting (via audio stream) softball games on the internet for free this season. I think it’s great that there are more and more ways to fans to follow softball!
Yahoo Sports also shows a list of college sports that will be broadcast in some way shape or form so you can check there to see if your favorite college softball team is one of them.
Another place to follow your college team online is CSTV. You can search for specific events or schools there.
Hopefully we see even more and more of these avenues for following softball pop up!
By the way - who’s your favorite college team this year? Leave a comment here and let us know!

… AND are in Chicago (or will be in the summer) then you definitely need to check out the Golf Event the Chicago Bandits Softball Team is going to host this summer. It’s the first ever Chicago Bandits Golf Classic. I rarely golf and I’m still thinking about making a trip to Chicago. lol
This event will be held on July 13 at Marengo Ridge Golf Club. Here’s a little more information about this fun softball/golf event:
Each hole at Marengo Ridge Golf Club will feature a different contest or challenge for the 18 holes of scramble-style golf. Check-in is scheduled for 8 a.m. with a shotgun start planned for 9 a.m.
Registration forms are now available for groups of four and also individual golfers. To golf with a Bandits player in your group, the foursome must pay an extra $125 (or only $31.25 extra a person). For $75 a person, golfers will experience a day of scramble-style golf and a golf cart, swag bag prizes, have the chance to earn on-course prizes and a lunch buffet after the round is complete.
Spots are limited to the first 144 golfers to register and a silent auction will be held during the dinner portion of the event.
