Website Work Continues

Posted by Olde Tymers Softball of Delmarva at Jun 5, 2019 2:07PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

You may have noticed some changes to the website if you haven’t been here for a while. Work is still on-going, but hopefully you’ll notice some things you’re used to.

We now have our Welcome Message displayed, and the menus across the top will get you to the league standings and scores. You’ll also see our sponsors down the right side, and on the left side, you can access our documents such as league schedules, rosters and by-laws.

Our missing teams have been recovered and the standings now show the correct team records.

More changes are coming, and if you have a question about the website, contact me at otssoftball@gmail.com.

Our Eteamz based website has been ported to a TeamPages based website.

Things certainly look different and there is an unresolved problem with two teams not surviving the transition which results in missing game scores and inaccurate standings. The TeamPages support team is working on resolving that issue.

We’re working to make the new website easy to navigate, but it will take some time.

In the meantime, if you have a problem or question, send an email to otssoftball@gmail.com and we’ll try to help.

Olde Tymers Softball of Delmarva is a recreational slow-pitch softball league for players 60 years of age and up. Games during the season are played in Sussex County in lower Delaware on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 9:00 am, 10:30 am and 12:00 noon on the Church of God fields at the intersection of Route 113 and Route 26 in Dagsboro. Enter the fields from Route 26 west of Route 113 by turning right at Hickman Street (the first gravel road past the American Legion). The Church of God has requested that the entrance to the church off Rt. 113 not be used to access the fields.

This site provides basic information on the league. It includes information on registration, practices, schedule, location of games, league standings, social activities and tournament opportunities for league members and sponsors.
