Team uniforms range from colorful t-shirts and shorts to more formal attire . “ The Latitude Margaritaville Daytona Beach Fins Ball Club is not messing around ,” says Ramona . “ Although they started later in the game development , one team ’ s uniforms look like they came right out of Yankee Stadium !”
While there is no running the bases in Fins Ball , occasionally , some of the former high school and college athletes do “ corkscrew ” themselves into home base for a bit of extra excitement . “ One resident jokingly commented that Fins Ball players don ’ t run because they don ’ t want to spill their margaritas ,” laughs Ramona .
Game participation has grown so much that Latitude Margaritaville Hilton Head and Latitude Margaritaville Daytona Beach now have formed resident Fins Ball Clubs with resident Fins Ball commissioners .
On August 27 , Latitude Margaritaville Hilton Head Fins Ball Commissioner Jim Cregge presided over the first ever community-to-community tournament between Hilton Head and Daytona
Beach Fins Ball teams . The winners ? The still reigning champions , Latitude Margaritaville Hilton Head ’ s Sweet & Salty Dogs won 11-10 over the Latitude Margaritaville Daytona Beach Flip Floppers .
“ What a game !” exclaims Ramona . “ It was awesome ! It was an absolutely amazing day of fun , new friends and fantastic sportsmanship .” After the game , everyone , of course , gathered at the Latitude Bandshell and Latitude Bar & Chill for a lively Latitude Margaritaville-style celebration .
Fins Ball is clearly a home run for Latitude Margaritaville and its fun-loving residents ! Fins Up to Fins Ball !
