Ten clubs across two divisions
Maine Woods 45 fields the Braves, Cardinals, Cubs, Dodgers, Giants and Pirates. Maine Woods 60 fields the Athletics, Orioles, Red Sox and White Sox. Each club has its own page, and the MW60 keeps an Emergency Contacts page alongside its rosters.
Keeping emergency contacts as a standing page for a division of men aged 55 and over is a quiet, correct decision that almost nobody else in this directory has made. Managers are listed per division and every club has a logo its uniforms must match. Rosters on High Cheese update as men are drafted and follow a player between divisions and seasons, so a man moving from the MW45 Pirates to the MW60 Orioles keeps one record.
