Jim has been a fixture in the Milwaukee area dartball community since starting in 1972.  He has been batting lead off and playing with the same core group of players since the early 1980s.  Not only is he still a great shooter, he serves as a coach/mentor to younger people just getting into the game.  He also recently joined the Monday afternoon retirees league this season.

I've been shooting Dartball with Jim Cason for 41 years Going Back to 1982. Jim is a very solid Lead off hitter. He has been a team Captain for many of those years. He displays great leadership and always having fun. Once again he is the only guy I know who does not look at the board before he shoots. Don't know how he does it but a great shooter. He deserves to be in Dartball Hall of Fame.

I also have known Jim many years in the MFLL league since the early 70s. Jim's team at Our Saviors was always one of the best teams in the league as well as the classiest. We had many high scoring matches and fun. Jim was also one of the members of the Wahoo Brothers tournament team. We did manage to win a tournament but mostly we enjoyed whatever tournament we were at celebrating with a beer or two. Jim so deserves to be in the hall of fame since he is truly one the best players I have ever played with and against. Jim always had fun, like his cap always said. Dartball has been blessed since Jim started playing in it over 50 years ago. Thanks for all the great times and memories!!!
