Coldwater Early Bird Tournament Results
Coldwater, MI
 
The annual Early Bird Tournament was held last weekend at Waterworks Park and Heritage Park in Coldwater, MI.  The Coldwater Softball Association runs this tournament each year as a fundraiser for it's men's fast pitch league.  There were 9 teams entered in this years event.  The pool play portion of the tournament was completed on Saturday afternoon with each team playing 2 games.  Unfortunately the rain washed out the single elimination portion of the tournament on Saturday night and Sunday.  An attempt will be made to complete the tournament later in the summer with any teams that wish to return for a one day playoff (format to be determined by number of teams).  We would like to thank all of the teams that participated and helped to support the Coldwater Softball Association (www.coldwaterfp.com).
