We are just a month away from the Gilbert Plains/Grandview Ag Society Fair & Rodeo.
It runs from July 11 to 13 and is one of the best events of the summer. As a part of this year's festivities, there's a slo-pitch tournament. Registration is now open, but you're running out of time to register. With a cap of eight teams, Brett Ewanyshyn told CKDM Sports on Friday morning that five teams are confirmed.
It's $200 per team. 10 players per team, and three must be female.
"It's open to all skill levels, it's a fun tournament. There are some better teams and some just come out for fun," said Ewanyshyn. "We do 10 batters and everyone bats every inning. It's a ton of fun."
Cash prizes up for grabs, with a $1,000 boost from Stony Plains Farms — every dollar of entry fees gets paid back out!
"The tournament happens at the same time as the Fair & Rodeo, so that's a bonus," ended Ewanyshyn. "When you're not playing, you can watch the chuckwagons or the rodeo going on. There is food on the grounds as well."
Camping is available for teams that come from out of town. Three spots left. To confirm your team, call or text Brett at 621-7545.
