Last year there were eighteen teams in the slow-pitch league. Consideration is also being given to split the league half way through the season when top teams in the league would form one unit and the lower teams would form a second unit. One of the problems facing the league is that some teams and their players desire to play serious ball while others look at the sport as purely recreational. It was felt by splitting the league into two units halfway through the season both features could be accomplished accomplished and as well it would to a degree eliminate some of the lop-sided scores and thus bring the games in closer competition. competition. • From the Orono area there will be the Forum team, the M&M team, the Jive Turkeys, the Ugly Ducklings, Orono Towing, Lycett's Plumbing and teams from Newtonville and Newcastle.
