Teams and players wanted for recreational tournament

from Eric Rosenquist

Teams and players wanted for recreational tournament

The Glen Cairn Men's Fastball League is holding its annual tournament on June 12-14th at the Carp Fairground diamonds. We're looking for some additional teams and players to round out the tournament and fill vacancies in some league rosters.

Teams

We're looking for two more teams in order to give us an even 12. The cost to enter a team is $250 with a three game guarantee. All teams are limited to having three pitchers per team, and those pitchers must be approved by our executive committee to ensure that their calibre is appropriate for our recreational league.

Roster size is unlimited, but everyone on the roster bats, so an extremely large roster can be a disadvantage. Unlimited defensive substitutions are allowed and there is unlimited "last out" pinch running. Metal cleats may be worn but shorts may not - some form of long pants are required. Batting helmets are required, as are bats that meet the ASA-2004 certification standards.

If your team is interested, please contact executive (at) gcmfl (dot) com prior to Friday evening (June 5th). If we cannot get two more teams by Friday night we'll proceed with 10 teams.

Players

League teams are permitted to pick up outside players to supplement their roster for the weekend. The cost per player is $20 regardless of the number of games played. Teams are allowed to pick up pitchers, but as mentioned above, pitchers must be approved by the executive committee. If you are interested in playing, please send your contact info and fastball resume to captains (at) gcmfl (dot) com.
