Our Midget 1 rep team will be playing in the annual Cam Mitchell Memorial tournament this weekend (June 13-15) at the Community Center diamonds. There are some excellent teams from both Canada and the U.S. attending so please drop by and cheer on the home team.

Ancaster took home the silver and were 3 outs away from the Gold in Brantford last weekend.

In the Championship game they held a 1 - 0 lead going into the 7th, when the Brantford Bobcats scored 4 runs and went on to win 4 - 1.

In the semifinals Ancaster defeated London Lightning 10 - 9 in extra innings in an exciting game that saw both teams score 4 runs in the first tie-breaker inning.

There is a very good chance that these 3 teams will be fighting for medals at the Provincials later in the year

Thanks to Todd Bannister and the host committee at Brantford for organizing another excellent tourney

Ancaster Midget 1 had a successful weekend (May 9-11) in Brantford and managed to walk away with the silver medal in a rain shortened championship game. Blizzards first game was against the Brantford Bobcat Bantams. A tough game right down to the wire. Blizzard down 2-1 in the closing minutes when an untimely error on third out opened the door for a 3 run shot by Brantford. Final 5-1 for Brantford. Blizzard started off on Saturday with a seventh inning rally to finish 4-2 against the eventual gold medalist Mississauga North Tigers. They then finished the day with a 11-7 win over Six Nations.

Finishing first in their pool, they faced  Ancaster in the quarter final. A great game by both teams with Blizzard 1 advancing in a 5-4 game. Another tough battle in the semi finals saw Blizzard defeat Princeton again 5-4. The final game saw Blizzard matched again with Mississauga Tigers. Great pitching and solid timely hitting by the Tigers. Unable to capitalize on a couple of opportunities Ancaster trailed 5-1 when the rain hit during the fifth inning. Game called due to rain after 5 complete with Tigers Gold and Blizzard silver. Good job by Todd, Jerry and the rest in Brantford for another well run tournament.
