An Open Invitation to all 12U Baseball Team Managers and Coaches
On behalf of Oakville Little League we would like to invite you to play in the 13th Annual Adam Fedoruk Memorial CAN/AM Tournament being held the August 12th-14th, 2011.
The tournament, one of the premiere 12 & under baseball tournaments in Ontario, is open to all 12-year old baseball teams across Canada and the United States, regardless of national affiliation (Little League, USSSA, ECTB, Cal Ripken, OBA, etc.). Our goal is to provide the highest level of competition in a fun, friendly and family-oriented setting.
The tournament was established as a lasting tribute to Adam Fedoruk, a young player in Oakville Little League who absolutely loved baseball. Tragically, Adam died suddenly, along with his sister and mother, in a house fire on August 17, 1998. This tournament is a celebration of all that this young player embodied; characteristics typically found in the young people who play in Little League - dedication, sportsmanship, teamwork and fair play.
And so, we invite you to take the field with us - play for fun, play for the love of the game, and play for Adam.
In the past, the tournament has drawn teams from Ontario, New York and Michigan. Many teams return on an annual basis. Players must be 12-years old or younger between May 1, 1996 and April 30th, 1997. For the teams coming from the United States, we think it would be a great way to end the season by participating in this wonderful memorial tournament dedicated to Adam.
The tournament is played in Oakville, Ontario. Oakville is located on the shores of Lake Ontario, 30-minutes west of downtown Toronto and just 45 minutes from the United States border crossing at Lewiston, New York.
The tournament games are played on very well maintained ball fields with grass infields, red clay pitching mounds & basepaths, 200-foot outfield fences and enclosed dugouts. The tournament will include activities such as, raffle draws, food concessions and souvenir stand.
The Tournament format is as follows:
- All teams are guaranteed to play three (3) games throughout the weekend
- All games are played until a winner is determined.
- There will be Championship and Consolation games played
Tournament Champions receive a Championship trophy for their league to keep. All players in the Championship and Consolation finals receive trophies. All players playing in the tournament receive an Adam Fedoruk Memorial pin and hot dog and drink tickets after your games played on Saturday and Sunday.
Deadline for registration is Monday, July 25th, 2011.
