New Men's Team: Napanee Express
Announced on Al's Fastball
Good to see a men's team out of Napanee on the tourney circuit.
Exciting news from Napanee, Ontario.
We are pleased to announce a new competitive mens tournament Fastpitch team from Napanee, Ontario. With support of Softball Napanee we have formed an exciting young team to compete in competitive tournaments in Ontario and the U.S. The team will be known as ‘NAPANEE EXPRESS’. Brad MacDonald and Daryl MacDonald felt there was a void for local players to continue with their fastptich careers after finishing the junior level. We polled some junior graduates and felt there was a real desire to keep playing top level Fastpitch. With that momentum over the winter we approached Express players to begin the process of putting the team together.
The team selection has solidified with a terrific group of athletes.
Every player on the roster has had time with the Napanee Jr Express program and experienced competition at the Canadian Nationals including gold, silver and bronze medal winners. All these players will continue
to play with their local league teams as they have in the past.
Our tournament selection has been finalized for this season. The Express will begin with the Crush Victoria Day tournament in Woodstock(May), Jim Bradford-Neil Cane in Cobourg(June), Mickey Brennan Memorial in Lackawana (July), Gil Read Memorial in Carp (July) and finish off the season with the NAFA Worlds in DesMoines, Iowa (Aug).
The roster is comprised of a pitching staff including Ian Wallwork, Josh Lockridge and Jordan MacDonald. The catching duties will be shared by Dan Burnham and Murray Hodgson. Position players are Kyle Lloyd, Joel Langford, Kristian Knapp, Lucas McNeill, Scott Mills, Ryan Mills, Adam Alexander , Nathan Moffat and Chris Switzer. The squad will have great team speed and defense, a good mix of power and contact hitting and solid pitching.
At this time we are still looking to secure a sponsor to aid in the promotion and development of the tournament team. We are looking forward to providing this opportunity to the players and endeavour to continue the program for years to come.
