It’s been another year

What's on your mind?

Hi All,
We started Heybucket at the end of 2007, January 2008 was our first full month. By the end of January we had around 6000 members. We shared a server with 11 other businesses. As the site started growing and Monday was our busiest day we started overloading the server n knocking all other 11 businesses sharing the server offline. So 2009 we had to upgrade to another server. The site was in full motion 2010 upgrade, 2012 upgrade, end of 2013 upgrade. You know how that goes every upgrade was more money. The big jump was at the end of 2014 we had to go on our own big server. I’m not even sure how it all works i just keep paying my web guy. :)
Anyway 10 years later over 40,000 members and we are still growing everyday.
I have met so many wonder people from all over the country through Heybucket over the years. I’m very thankful for that. I’m thankful for softball for bringing us all together and very thankful my two girls went threw it and got to play college ball.

I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year.

"Build it and they will come"...
Thanks Uno for having the foresight to build something that brings the softball community together. I joined when by DD was in 10U travel ball and now she is playing in her final year before going off to college to play the sport she loves. New softball websites popping up is a tribute to HB's reach to the community. Thanks for providing a forum crammed full of insightful advice some of the time, but entertaining banter and blather most of the time.

Am I one of those "wonder people," or do I land in a different category?
There is no charge for awesomeness
...or attractiveness.
