Welcome to Saskatoons FINEST slow-pitch team...........The 69ers!
Do you like competitive ball, can you hit a home run every time you bat, do you work out more than 3 times a week?
If you answered yes to any of these questions please leave now, we're not that kind of team!
However.............if you like to have fun, enjoy playing ball, love cold tasty beverages and the socializing after the games, then your the player we're looking for!
We are a semi-competitive co-ed slo-pitch team and while we like to win, we're mainly out there to have fun.
Take a minute to visit our History and Roster sections to learn more about the team and it's players.

Playoff Analysis
Game 1 - 69ers vs TOG:
- the playoffs got off to a great start with the 69ers getting the win over TOG. Team as a whole played great and other than Tanner tripping and falling over second base, we looked oddly enough like a ball team out there!
Game 2 - 69ers vs Thirsty Dozen
- as this is the #1 team in the league, I was abit nervous before the game but I worried needlessly. After allowing the Dozen a ten batter inning in the 3rd, the team rallied back with 3 innings of not allowing them a run. As defence and offence don't always work at the same time on our team.....I was very happy to see home runs by four different people along with some aggressive base running. Keeping it close, we were down by one in the last inning when Cheryl got a base hit followed by home run Al which gave us the winning run. Off to the "A" final!
Game 3 - 69ers vs The Hillbillies
- after playing "flippy cups" with the Thirsty Dozen for 3 hours in the beer gardens, it was off to the final. It would appear beer and heat got the best of the team because we definately stunk it up in the last game! We managed to keep it close for a couple of innings but in the end the Hillbillies defeated us (again!) to win the A final. I think Tanner was just to "gassy" to focus, that "nap" Jeff had really messed up his batting and Devin was still thinking about Stephanie who kept showing him her "tan lines"....... Oh well, like the Riders, there's always next year!

Beach Volleyball 2011
Well it was close but with a win in the last season game, we grabbed one of the last playoff spots.
Imagine my surprise however to learn that some of the team had made "other plans" for the v'ball weekend as they assumed we were out of the playoffs. Yeah, coach was super not impressed!
In any case, we ended up losing two straight in the playoffs however they were very close games and no need to hang our heads.
Thanks everyone for a great season (yeah, including you Ian!) and I hope to see everyone back in 2012.
