Active Life Styles,
Inc. believes that softball is a year-round activity for everyone, and that neither the time of year nor a person's age should be determining factors for playing what has become America's most popular participatory sport. For this reason, an indoor senior softball league will begin this winter, and the fourth annual winter softball camp will take place. These activities are made available, along with the enormously successful summer senior league, so that softball could be played throughout all 12 months of the year.

According to Balls and Strikes Softball Magazine, softball is currently being played by 40
million people in the United States, with the number continuing to grow from year to year. The tremendous popularity of the American Softball Association and the National Senior Softball Association serves as proof that
people in all age groups are players, not just spectators. |

The senior league accommodates players 50 years of age and over, providing a means by which former high school or college
athletes, or those who engaged in casual team sports, can keep those 'glory years' alive. At the same time, those who are new to the sport can be introduced to the benefits of friendly competition. "We want to keep
playing, and not hang up that glove and bat just yet. You can never be too old for softball," said Al Schneider, founder and vice-president of Active Life Styles, who added that, "softball encourages people to be
participants, as opposed to spectators, as they age."
Active Life Styles Winter Camp IV will be held in Altamonte Springs, Florida. The program is designed for players of all ages and skill
levels, in a location that was the site of the 1994 Senior Softball World Series. The training, competition and special events make the camp an unforgettable experience for everyone involved.

And remember...You don't stop playing because you grow old.
You grow old because you stop playing! |
