Six categories, no entries
The standings page offers individual batting, fielding and pitching leaders and the three team equivalents. None of them holds an entry, in either the 40+ or the 60+ division.
A leaderboard is worth more in a 60+ competition than almost anywhere else, because the men in it have been keeping their own numbers for forty years. Statistics on High Cheese come out of the box scores as they are entered and follow a player between clubs, divisions and seasons, so a career that started in high school has somewhere to keep going.
