Sarah Beth Whitehead Tournament Formerly in Jackson

[Imatiger]

Hello everybody! The Sarah Beth Whitehead Tournament that has been at the Jackson Sportsplex for the last 9 years will still be played this year. The new location will be in Lexington. The Jackson Sportsplex has decided to turn 2 of the softball fields into baseball fields so they no longer have enough fields to host this great tournament. We will still be shooting for 28 teams as we have done in the past as well as a few more wrinkles that have not been done in the past. The dates will still be opening weekend, March 15-17. We will have all the information out this Friday so everybody can get signed up. John and Tresa hope that all the teams that have supported this wonderful cause in the past will keep supporting it and any new teams will be more than welcome. Thanks and talk with you soon!

With the tournament being in Lexington this year and the first year we have hosted it, we have decided to stop the teams at 20 to make sure we can put on the best tournament possible with the space we have. With that being said, as of today we are at 17 teams. We will stop at 20 and start working on all the pools, fields and umpire scenarios.
