The South Florida Senior Softball Association is based in the Four Fields Complex in Pompano Beach.  Throughout the year it provides recreational softball to players 50 years of age or older. The club meets on Mondays and Fridays year round and adds Wednesdays during the winter season when our snow bird members arrive.  The club membership usually encompasses approximately 100 members.  While recreational softball is the attraction that brings the players together, the club is not one dimensional.  We involve ourselves in many activities to benefit the Pompano area, it's residents and those in need.  We host tournaments where the proceeds are given to worthy causes.  On Saturday, December 5th the club will break down into four teams and play games for the needy youngsters in the area.  The entry fee for each player will be one unwrapped toy that will be forwarded to children who otherwise might get nothing for the holidays.  Forty-eight players have signed up for the event so there should be a lot of smiles on Christmas morning.  We invite all to come down to watch and bring a toy as well.  All donations will be accepted and forwarded.

On Friday, September 11th, to commemorate Patriot's Day,  the club presented an $800 check to Mission United, a division of the United Way of Broward County. Michael Ellis of Mission United accepted the check and announced that the money would be used to provide dental care for Veterans.  There are 32 dentists in Broward County that provide pro bono dental work for veterans in need, but there are lab tests and other incidentals that have to be paid for out of pocket.  This donation will help defray those costs.  Mr. Ellis is a veteran of the U.S. Navy.
