Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize the Bombers softball team in Rural Hall, North Carolina.

Now, the Bombers softball team is not average by any stretch of the imagination. This team has a unique and inspiring story. The team is comprised of athletes who are in their eighties and nineties and who have an abiding gratitude for spirited camaraderie and a commitment to living life to the fullest.

Most nights during the summer, these athletes play at Covington Memorial Park in Rural Hall and enjoy a few hours of sport among friends.

Mr. Speaker, their passion is admirable, and it is a testament to the fact that age really is just a number.
