Hey John W, my husband would be interested in playing softball and we live in Tamarind Grove.

Before he can play a game, he has to be evaluated. Every player goes through that before they are allowed on a team. It's held at the Buffalo Glen softball fields near TV High School. Going west on 466 turn left at the light on Totonka, Red Lobster is on the corner.
It held every Tuesday morning at 8am, although they would like you to be there by 7:30. Once you go to your first evaluation, you have a year to finish all three. I found it best to get all three done in a row. They don't have evaluation the last two weeks of August and the first week of September, the fields close for yearly maintenance.
I would recommend first going to the games on Saturday to see if you like what you see. We play at two different complexes, this season we are at Buffalo Glen Fields. This Saturday we play at 9:45 on Field #4. You can go and watch any games, they go from 8:30 to about 2pm every Saturday.
We have about 30 players in Tamarind Grove, but since we have two teams and about ten players are snowbirds, the roster changes season to season. Myself and one other player are the only ones to have played on the same team for Tamarind Grove all five seasons that we have been in existence.
