Andy Masterbone
Andy passed away on New Year's Day. He was a long time player and
manager with Vintage Softball and additionally did a fantastic job of
restringing gloves for Vintage players at a very reasonable price.
A memorial service or celebration of life will be held for Andy on Jan
14th from 1 to 4 in the afternoon. It will be held at the Cribari
Center Lounge in The Villages at 5000 Cribari Lane, San Jose, 95135

About Us
The Vintage Softball Club started in 1987 for seniors to compete in slow pitch softball.
The Club currently has 5 different leagues and about 300 members. The Club is open to men and women that
will be at least 50 years of age, or older, any time in the year that they join.
Our Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday leagues compete year round with new teams formed every three or four months. Members
can play in any or all of these leagues. So, in 2012 we will welcome anyone born in 1962 or earlier.
