It has also awarded over 16,000 champions, and directed more than 700,000 participants. Thay have played adult slow pitch softball games at 29 different locations and on 66 different fields in and around the Houston area. Ralph Hall is a writer of "Ralphisms" and of numerous thoughts on softball and baseball. His writings contain humor, insight, and a spirituality which few attain. Ralphisms can be compared to a Yogi Berra type of humor.

Ralphisms

Here is a small sample.

*More teams get beat by alcohol and by themselves than by the other teams.
*When you come to the fork in the road, be sure to clean it well before you eat with it.
*My deliverer is coming, but He isn't carrying a pizza.
*Do ump to others as you would have them do ump to you.
*We work. You Play.
*If you respect our history and care about our presence, you may wear the trophy of honor in our future.
*The tasks ahead of us are never as great as the power within us.
*We do not invite the great teams to humble the rest. We invite the humble to become great.
*Hall things are possible and winning the future is one of those possibilities.
*Never stop connecting with the One who gave you your dreams. To follow Him is more important than to follow your dreams.
