The first big event at the new baseball diamonds at the Rotary Athletic Park of Olds is coming up this weekend.
The Olds Spitfires are thrilled to be hosting Baseball Alberta’s 15U double ‘A’ Tier 1 provincial championships.
Spitfires 14 year old shortstop Ryder Hammer says they are familiar with the teams coming to Town for provincials and he talks about his expectations for the tournament.
Hammer explains who their coach is this season and what he likes about their team.
The Olds Spitfires are in Pool A for the round robin portion of the provincial tournament with the Black Gold 47’s from Leduc/Beaumont, the Barrhead Orioles and the Chestermere Crushers. Stettler, Strathmore and Parkland are the four teams in Pool B.
The first game for Spitfires is set for this Friday at 5:30pm at the Rotary Athletic Park of Olds against the Black Gold 47’s. Olds will face Barrhead at 8:30am on Saturday and Chestermere that afternoon at 2:30. As long as no tiebreakers are required, the U-15 double ‘A’ provincial championship will be determined at 3pm on Sunday. Check out the Spitfires Baseball Facebook page for more details.
