StriKe Out Cancer

This tournament is in honor of the loved ones of each team that have been affected by cancer. 

NO METAL SPIKES on the pitching mats at Lone Elm or OGSA.  Turf shoes or molded cleats only.

Pool Schedules are posted. No changes will be made to schedules unless an error is discovered. 

Daily Gate Fee for the Weekend: $8.00 for Adults. $5.00 for Seniors and Kids.  Cash only.

Everyone will pay at the gate.  Coaches can bring up to 3 gate tickets to exchange for weekend coaches passes.  You must do this on the first day your team plays.

Honoring those affected by cancer:

1.  Stop by the tournament registration area at any of the parks and pick up a free paper ribbon, write a name or message on it, and we will add it to our Honor Wall. 

2.  If your team is decorating their dugout or wearing special uniforms to honor people, please take pictures and send them along with your team name and age group to 316-214-9502 so we can post them on our pages.

3.  Each complex will have TOURNAMENT SHIRTS for sale near the registration areas while supplies last.  Additionally we may have other items for sale such as buttons, pins, vintage tournament shirts, etc.  All proceeds will go to our donation to local efforts aimed at cancer care and prevention.
