Coming Soon To a “Batter’s Box” Near You Every team will be offered a space every edition of the Newsletter to submit something funny... write about their game... whatever...and since we’re doing a newsletter every Tuesday of every week, you have plenty of time to come up with something! If your team doesn’t submit anything, and isn’t in the newsletter, talk to your captain!
Ideas for Team Submissions
Then email them to me at backyardsportsclub@gmail.com
When I say, submit something for your team, here are some ideas: • Play by plays of the game • Document the debauchery at the bar - i.e. describing someone’s amazing acting skills hobbling across the bar with a “sprained ankle” just to Ice a teammate. ] • Draw pictures!!!!! • Favorite quotes, poems, song lyrics, movie scripts, YouTube video, or motivational speeches! • Email chains from the morning after . • Funny pictures of you, your team, or something random on the internet • Give your team member awards - drunkest, loudest, person with the least shame, best off the face catch, etc.! • Anything. Really. Someone on your team is creative.
Submissions are due EVERY Tuesday by 7 p.m. ** If you need extra time, email me and just let me know.
Backyard Sports Club’s email is: backyardsportsclub@gmail.com. I look forward to working with all of you!

Catch of the Week Brought to you by Anonymous
Christy Rusnack – Wiffskey Militia This write-up should be really short, cause all I have to say is BOOTY! This girl has got a booty, geez! And I’ve been obsessed with it ever since she joined Wiffskey. I should probably preface this with…I’m happily married and straight! Why this chick is single is beyond me, she’s a hottie! Actually Jon Reyes, I think you should take this girl out…she’s tall and blonde, just like you like em! JK, didn’t mean to put you on the spot like that! But for real guys, she’s hot, sweet, athletic, she’s a Phillies fan AAAAND baby’s got back!
