As we draw nearer to the time of the tournament, more things are falling into place.
The trophies for both the tournament and home run derby, which were provided by Galloway Lazer and Print, are done! And they look great!
The t-shirts are in production and will be ready the week prior to the start of the tournament. Shirts will be available for sale throughout the tournament weekend. Adult sizes S-XL are $15 and 2XL/3XL will be $17. Pre-orders will be taken through the 14th, after that sales will be first come, first served.
The bracket is designed with game timings in place. This may change a bit based on weather conditions for the week and weekend of the tournament. Games are scheduled for Friday evening, Saturday morning, and Sunday afternoon.
Homerun derby segments will be: Men over 16, Women over 16, youth male and female 11-16, youth male and female under 11. Each segment listed above will bat separately starting with the adult divisions. Cost of participation is $5 with all proceeds being donated to our selected recipients, at the end of the championship game on Sunday afternoon!
Lastly, I want to thank everyone who has already volunteered to help out throughout the weekend. I still need some volunteers for various parts of the tournament throughout the weekend. We do need some people who would be willing to keep the scoreboard, help keep the field, always could use more umpires, and people to help in the concession stand. Most importantly with so many things going on and moving parts throughout the weekend , we need our prayer warriors. In 8 years of this tournament we have had no serious injuries, minimal weather complications, and great participation; which I can only attribute to His blessing.
