Some of the country's best 16-year-old baseball players will attend Oshawa this weekend to play for the Premiere Baseball League of Ontario 16U championship.
We want you to join us at Kinsmen Stadium for all the action. You'll see good, quality baseball as Oshawa hosts 7 other teams in the 3-day tournament starting Friday, July 19.
"We want to fill Kinsmen Stadium for the games," said Jayson DesLauriers Legionaires, head coach.
The season has been a triumphant one for Oshawa, culminating in a tournament win at the Pastime Tournament at Oakland University in Michigan. Now, the squad is setting its sights on another victory, this time at the prestigious PBLO championship.
All house league and rep players are invited to attend the games and cheer on the Legionaires. Wear your Baseball Oshawa jerseys and hats to show your blue and gold pride.
Admission is free.
