With the Chicagoland Summer APBA Tournament behind us, APBA fans are looking ahead to the future. First of all, there will be another Chicagoland tournament in Woodstock scheduled for November.
Now it looks like Pastor Rich Zawadzki is seeing what kind of interest there is for a similar tournament in Michigan in Spring of 2015. He’s posted an announcement on Facebook and it’s already garnered a fair amount of excitement.
“Would any APBA Baseball Basic (Cards, Dice, Boards) players in the Greater Michigan (Also OH, IN, IL, etc.) area be interested in a Saturday (Approx 9-5 with lunch) March 1, 2015 tourney in the Jackson / Lansing, MI area?
20 man rosters
Stock teams (No Negro Leagues, OFAS, BATS, etc.) including Great Teams of the Past, and any team from 1901 – 2013 (APBA Only).Please feel free to tag others in this post, as I am gauging interest at this time.
We need anywhere from 8-16 firm commitments to have a real tourney.”
I think this is fantastic! I told Rich to keep me in mind for this. It sounds like a blast.
If any of you are interested, let Rich know on Facebook. If you’re not on Facebook, leave a comment below.
Not on Facebook but very interested in attending! I would have gone to Chicago for that tourney but was had to work that weekend. Please pass on my interest – thanks!
