Cape Cod Senior Softball League

The CCSSL is mourning the loss of Buddy Rose a founding member of the league and a Hall of Famer.  A feared clean-up hitter, Buddy was a significant player in our league for over 20 years.  He was a respected teammate  known for his constant good nature.  Buddy was also an important contributor in the building of Memorial Field.

Of all the CCSSL firsts this year, none is more gratifying than the introduction of our COED division.  Under the determined direction of Debbie Connors and a team of dedicated new managers, the four team division is wrapping up its season of Friday evening games.  The players, many in their first year, exhibited the best of our league's traits of competition, community and friendship.  I can't wait to see what they do next season!

Special thanks to Charlie Salerno for his guidance and dedication in making the COED division a reality.

Jim Gunning,  Commissioner

Following a D1 game at Sandy Pond last Thursday, we endured a frightening cardiac arrest event.  Gratefully, among our players was an experienced, recently retired Firefighter / Paramedic who saved a life on that night. Thank you Shawn!

The sun soaked fairways of Dennis Highlands Golf Course provided the stage for our 1st annual tournament.  Eighty players, friends and family enjoyed a gorgeous day of golf followed by lunch, libations and a fun raffle.  We exceeded our fund raising goals and have fully covered the cost of AEDs at the fields for this year.  Thank you to the players and sponsors for their generous donations.
