I recently started playing indoor again after almost a decade off. Started in over-30, now playing open again. At 39, I'm pretty glad I can still move around with most of the young guns. Smarter, not harder. Our coach's team went 3 years without a loss until last week, lost to an U19 boys team that went to nationals..

Well, you certainly must be in better shape than me (which would not be hard  Embarrassed ).  I had to give up the A league youngster chasing a year ago.  I still have good pace, but no stamina (bite your tongue stroh!) - and our league was very fast paced.  I gave up 3 nights a week for 1 a few years ago when my knees could not recover from game to game - that is when my 'wind' started to go.

Even if I get back into shape, I think I'm sticking with over-30 from here out.

I've gone to find myself.  If I get back before I return, keep me here.

It is no wonder you can't keep up.  You have to take twice as many strides as anyone else! Stir the pot

I don't play golf anymore.   Well, maybe I do sort of.  I quit keeping score, started drinkning beer and I started playing better.

I remember the day I hung up the spikes and glove, and "retired". Played adult beer league softball pretty much straight out of high school into my early thirties.  Some years 3 nights a week.

Broken thumb, and too many rough mornings, I finally decided to hang it up.

I still toy with the idea of finding an over 40 league in a few years.  We'll see.
