The Central Crew was lucky enough to stop in on the Nill Bros. Louisville Slugger Classic for their 106 team tournament. The complex was great and the fans were greater as we gave out many buckets of Topps and Upper Deck baseball cards. The lines were long both days with kids waiting for their chance to find their favorite Kansas City Royals players. The older kids were swinging wood bats at the tournament, but that did not prevent the young ball players from testing out the new 2010 Slugger bats. Lots of players had so much success on Friday night that they came back out first thing Saturday morning for another chance to try them out.

The Little League World Series tents were at maximum capacity too!!! We had kids playing tournaments, a family feud where a father defeated his son, and a team battle where the Sharks beat the Pride. Everyone was having a blast.

Kids were trying all day long to win a New Era 5950 hat, but crew member Jeremy’s bonus round questions were too difficult for anyone to walk away with a lid. Maybe next time!!

We gave away lots of Topps Attax cards to tournament winners over the weekend. Jason even won so many games we gave him two 20 card starter packs.

Because kids were having so much fun with it at our last tournament, we decided to play Dizzy Disney again. Max was the winner and we hooked him up with a handful of thundersticks and a Disney XD shirt.
We are heading to a Kansas City Royals game tonight but will be back on the road tomorrow for our next tournament in Texas. Keep checking baseballyouth.com for updates.
