The Warriors will travel to Lombard to participate in the Lombard Baseball Tournament from Friday, July 2nd through Sunday, July 4th. This will be the first time that the Warriors will play in Lombard.
My hope was to return to the Hickory Hills Tournament during this time frame--the site of our 2008 tournament championship. But, Hickory Hills has just one Pony field without lights--which causes its tournament to span over ten days. If our team were to block out ten days of prime tournament dates to participate in a three game tournament--we would lose all flexibility to participate in a host of other tournaments and likely lost at least four of five games from our overall schedule. So, Lombard it is!
We are still seeking two more tournaments. Another distant tournament looks interesting (four game guarantee for our final tournament): Wheaton runs from July 15th through the 18th. Also, we are waiting for announcements from Palos, Frankfort and Worth on their tournament dates. Information will be posted on this site as soon as it becomes available.
