Report

After a four month delay to the start of the 2020 season due to the COVID-19 Coronavirus Outbreak, the Softball Leinster Schedule was finally released in July [Ref: 3-4]. A reduced number of teams were able to sign up for a mini-season, with Castleknock, Chuggers, Dodder Dynamites, Marlay, Renegade Beachers and Usual Suspects making up Division 1A. [Ref: 2]

Saucy Hippies took the Division 1B Conference Title with a 23-3 win over Thunderbolts on 9th September, a week after the rest of the Conference. They finished tied with Renegade Titans on 22 Points (4 wins 1 Loss each) but won the title on both runs difference and head-to-head having beaten Renegade Titans 14-13 on 22 July. The Saucy Hippies one loss came on 12 August against Dublin Bay Packers who would have won the title if they had played and won two games they forfeited against Thunderbolts and Renegade Titans at the start of the season, having won all other three matches.
