Owen Sound Selects Bid(s)
January 14, 2010
Owen Sound, ON
Owen Sound Softball Bid(s) The Owen Sound Selects Fastball organization has received confirmation on one front and await confirmation on another front.
The Ontario Amateur Softball Association ( OASA ) has confirmed that the Brick Brothers Volkswagen Junior Selects have been awarded the hosting duties for the
2011 Ontario Junior Elimination Tournament.
That tournament will be staged during the
Canada Day Weekend in 2011 @ Duncan McLellan Park in Owen Sound.
The Canadian Junior Men's Championship will be hosted by Napanee in 2011 and Simpson relates hosting the Provincial Tournament should help the Junior Selects both on the field and in terms of expenses.
The OASA has also confirmed they support the bid by the Owen Sound Verge Investment Selects to host the 2011 Canadian Senior Men's Championship Tournament.
The Owen Sound
bid to host the Canadian Men's Championship in 2011, will be forwarded to Softball Ontario & Softball Canada this week.
All of the provincial associations will be informed of Owen Sound's bid and the Selects understand that if no rival bid appears within the next two weeks, they will host the National Men's Championship again.
Owen Sound has hosted the Canadian Women's Championship ( 2001 ), the Canadian Senior Men's Championship ( 2003 ) and the Canadian Junior Men's Championship ( 2008 & 2009 )
