July 25, 2023: Disappointing day for Brainerd. They lost to Cold Spring 7-6. Wednesday there will be only 1 game, Cold Spring vs. St. Cloud Blue. Since our District gets to send two teams. Little Falls will automatically take one spot and the winner of Cold Spring or St. Cloud will be the other. All coaches agreed. Kevin Jensen.
Play was also in progress at Mills Field in Memorial Park in Northeast Brainerd. See below:
Then more at Don Adamson Field, as seen below:
June 19, 2023: The 16-year-old team was playing at Don Adamson Field in Brainerd. They were playing the VFW team from Sauk Rapids, MN. Lots of fun on a mostly sunny day.
There are the Men's 25 and Over Softball Team and the Women's 35 and Over Softball Team sponsored by the VFW too.
