2009 Pastime Tournament Dates

Temple University has been added to our 2009 tournament schedule. Again, a couple of other locations will be added shortly as well.

The 2009 Nationals will be held in Indianapolis with Butler University, University of Indianapolis, and Marian College as three of our focal field locations. We are finalizing tentative details to host championship games for the Nationals events at Victory Field, home to the Indianapolis Indians.

For those who have not visited the park you can visit them at www.IndyIndians.com and click "Victory Field" for more information.

My sons team played in the Midwest Woodbat Championship Tournament last year (2008) it was one of the best run tournaments we played in all year. Our coach said we will be playing in at least one maybe more of the Pastime Tournaments this year.

Ditto. My son's team played in Indianapolis. The tournament was well-organized, the competition was good, and their were quite a few colleges represented.

Pastime Tournaments has been brought on to run all Indiana Bulls tournaments during the 2009 tournament season. This will add several new tournaments for teams (12-18U) in Indiana along with the 17/18U division tournaments at Ball State University, Purdue University, another tournament at Indiana University, and an invite only event at the University of North Carolina (teams may register online first thing in the morning to request an invite).

Tournament locations now include:

Butler University/University of Indianapolis, Indiana University, Ball State University, Purdue University, University of Michigan, Wright State University, Eastern Kentucky University/Transylvania University, Arkansas State University, University of Arkansas Little Rock, Oklahoma State University, University of North Carolina, University of Evansville, Saint Louis University/Missouri Baptist University, Temple University and the University of Dallas.

Pastime Tournaments

We've decided to host a tournament this weekend. Everyone bring two long pieces of ice and a dozen frozen snow balls if you are in the Midwest region! There will be no charge for the event as snowmen will be the umpires and all players must wear ice skates or snow shoes (the ones that prevent you from falling through the 10 inches of snow)!

Pastime - you guys still snowed in? We were beginning to thaw out but I am beginning to think it's going to be a white summer!

Pastime-
My son is a 17 year old HS sophomore. A 16U travel team has asked him to play and they are scheduled for your tourney in Kentucky.

USSSA tourneys allow him to particpate at 16U. How about your tourneys?
thanks
Brian

Bretzke, because he is a Sophomore yes he is okay to participate in this event. No worries.

Pastime Tournaments has partnered with D-BAT for 2009 and we will be providing at least one wood bat to every teams attending one of our wood bat events this summer! We have plans of providing every team with one Ash and one Maple bat but have yet to finalize those details. D-BAT has become the official wood bat provider for all Pastime wood bat events. We will look in to working out the same program for all of the fall tournaments that will be released over the next month or two for fall as well. Thanks to D-BAT!

The Tournament 4th of July Weekend at Eastern Kentucky University is that going to be played at EKU. I heard they were having problems getting the field and there might not be any games at Eastern..

We have had no problems with EKU as we will have the field all weekend. We will actually be using EKU and Transylvania for the games. So no worries on the fields for sure.

All teams attending 2009 events with Pastime Tournaments, over 1000 teams registered for events already, are encouraged to get your schedule requests in one month prior to the start of your event(s). We will begin releasing schedules for tournaments shortly. Thanks to everyone and we look forward to the summer. IF you are still looking to attend an event please register as soon as possible because most events are either closed or will be closing shortly. Thanks again.
