Thirty-two slo-pitch teams ‘In it to Win it’
Slow-pitch players took to the ball diamonds at the North Battleford Flats this morning to kick off the North Battleford Umpires Association’s (NBUA) ‘In it to Win it’ tournament.
NBUA is a collective of four umpires with a goal of facilitating the organization and rules for players, including tournaments such as In it to Win it.
“I feel [In it to Win it] is one of the best [slo-pitch] tournaments in Saskatchewan. It’s one of the biggest, and best run with the best prize money for an open tournament,” Myron Cooper, a member of NBUA and director of the tournament said.
“Some of the best softball players in Saskatchewan are here right now.”
