Midnight softball is planned at the Triangle Fields, 8 p.m. April 23 to 2 a.m. the next morning.

Master Sgt. Anthony Fisher, 81st Training Group military training superintendent, said the
tournament was the result of focus group meetings between his staff and the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention and Treatment program staff headed by Capt. Kara Wisniewski.

"Our overarching message is that Team Keesler doesn't tolerate underage drinking or
contributing to this problem," Sergeant Fisher said.

Tech. Sgt. Steven Clinton and Staff Sgt. Jennifer Hamilton, 81st TRG military training
leaders, are organizing the event.

"We're giving our Airmen an alternative activity for that Saturday night," Sergeant Clinton explained. "We expect 10 teams of nonprior service Airmen, an MTL team and possibly a team of commanders and first sergeants. The airman and family readiness center is setting up a giant screen so Airmen can watch movies while waiting for their next game. We're working on food,  music and other activities to make this a success."
