On Saturday, the  3rd annual Over The Line tournament took place in Phoenix.  OTL is a 3-man sport that’s somewhat like baseball.  The sport has been adapted for people in wheelchairs.  Each team tries to score runs by advancing ghost runners around the bases.  The event was held in the parking lot of the North Phoenix Baptist Church.  This year eight teams participated, and there was a 2nd event for youths using a wiffle ball.

The sport allows you to photograph up close but unfortunately in a tournament like this, the backgrounds arent too pleasing.  So I got a lot of experience looking for photo opportunities that didnt include j-johns and trash cans in the background.

I had to leave before I got the rosters, but I’ll add the teams, rosters, and winners pretty quick. More photos are inside article. Read the rest of this entry »
