Annual Softball Tournament
Hello Softball Players and Sponsors:
It's time again for the 35th Annual Softball Tournament! The Northwest Louisiana Chapter of Sickle Cell Disease Association of America, Inc. invites you to participate with us as we "hit it out of the park" for sickle cell disease.
|
The tournament will be held Friday July 8, Saturday 9, & Sunday 10, 2011.
This is an entire weekend of fun, playing America’s favorite pastime, so mark your calendar!! We expect to have a spectacular time with the first pitch being thrown promptly at 7:00 p.m. July 8, 2011. The support you have given us in the past is greatly appreciated. We look forward to seeing you in this year’s tournament.
We encourage you to book your hotel room(s) in advance so that you can take advantage of the discounted hotel rates. When registering for your hotel be sure to mention you are with the Sickle Cell Softball Tournament. Enclosed is the registration package, along with a housing form. Please complete the housing form and return it to our office as soon as possible. The Sickle Cell Office needs this information for tracking purposes during your weekend with us. We have enclosed a list of hotels and a map of the area for your convenience.
Please plan and prepare to participate in the AT&T Home Run Derby on Friday, July 8, 2011 at 6:00 P.M. Winners will receive cash prizes and recognition. We encourage you to support our local community by attending other area festivities if time permits. The Shreveport – Bossier area has much to offer. Visit our many museums and attractions, River Boat Casinos and dine at our fine restaurants.
Your presence and participation is greatly appreciated as you play ball and assist us in our efforts in “Breaking the “Sickle Cycle”. We hope to see you on the softball field. Again welcome!
