These camps are how our quality players get on the radar screen for such things as the Alberta Summer Games, Alberta Zone Championships, Canada Cup teams and even Canada Games teams. They are a must for any player who wishes to progress to higher amateur levels within Alberta. It's also how some players get noticed and offered baseball scholarships.

The Fish Creek Majors Marlins are proud champions of the 2008 Lethbridge SWLL tournament. I am very proud of the way our team competed and the way they bonded with great camaraderie. The team had great pitching, timely hitting and solid defense. Twenty four teams were entered in the tournament and only the six pool champions of four teams each and two wild card teams could advance to the quarter finals. We played two games on Saturday and lost one 8-6 and won one 15-8. That set up our third game on Sunday. We know we needed to win and we needed a lot of runs to be eligible as a wild card team The boys played great and Kyle Desjardins pitched us to a 10-0 win with 10 strikeouts against Hanna. That win put us into the quarter final against a solid Cal-West team that had gone 3 and 0 in the round robin. We won 9-2 with a great pitching performance from Brandon Desjardins. A highlight was a late inning bases loaded fly ball to deep center field. Brendan Dranchuk leaped up to catch one from dropping over the fence and save four runs. What a catch!! Justin Dziadyk and Josh Hillis pitched us to a 12-5 win over Rocky Mountain in the semi-finals. The win sent us to the final against a Magrath team that had gone undefeated. The boys were very excited to play at Canola Harvest and they punished the Magrath Mavericks 22-1 in four innings. Colton Seaman pitched a three hitter for the victory. Ryan Desmarais hit a grand slam homer that really deflated their team and took the wind from their sails. We were very fortunate to great pitching and great hitting from our entire lineup. Congratulations Marlins!!!!"

Fish Creek's annual adult social is on June 14 at Queensland Community Center. The event is a combined dinner, dance and silent auction. This is an important fundraiser for FCLL, and the organizers have asked each team to provide items for the silent auction. They are also looking for volunteers to work at the party. Some documents describing the auction are attached. Please have a look and if you are interested in helping out, you can contact Pam Rothweiler at 723-0007 or prothweiler@shaw.ca.
