17th
Annual Wiffle Ball Tournament Deadline Draws Near
2010 Registration
Information
The 17th
annual Ephrata Invitational Wiffle Ball Tournament, hosted
by the Ephrata Baseball Association, is quickly
approaching and time is running out to register your team
to compete in this year’s event. Deadline for entry in
all three circuits closes on Friday, February 12th
at 9:00 pm. To register your team or to get more
information on this year’s Indoor War, including
tournament rules, history, records and more, log onto
www.mountshardball.com/WiffleHome.htm.
Returning to the tournament schedule is the always
exciting Dairy Queen Dinger Derby, a home run hitting
contest sponsored by Dairy Queen of Ephrata that promises
to generate lots of interest. DQ Derby participants from
the Rookie, Junior, and Senior Divisions will be competing
to see who will break some of the all-time Derby records,
and to find out who will be crowned this year’s Dinger
Duke. Another feature that continues to add “flavor” to
the Indoor War is the catered barbecue pit featuring
authentic slow-smoked brisket, pulled pork, sausage, and
more from Lil’ Bevo’s BBQ. Combined with the traditional
concession stand, this feature offers players and
spectators with a choice of light fare or affordable
sit-down barbecue platters. This year’s “Friday Night
Special” is Lil’ Bevo’s $10 smoked prime rib platter which
was featured on this past season’s “Cooking For Class” on
Blue Ridge Cable 11.
A number
of other activities are also being planned to supplement
the main attraction, the two-day Wiffle Ball Tournament,
which will take place on February 19-20th at the Ephrata
Middle School. This year’s tournament currently has
openings for team entry in the Rookie Circuit (grades 5
and under), the Junior Circuit (grades 6-8),and the Senior
Circuit (grades 9-12).
