softballs left Deltaville Ballpark in droves over the weekend during the first annual Deltaville Ballpark Slowpitch Tournament.
Led by captain Jake Fletcher, the red-clad softballers went undefeated in four games throughout the two-day tournament, capping their run with a 15-10 win over Team Haywood on the championship game.
The seven participating teams were supported by over 30 sponsors and combined to raise over $30,000 for Deltaville Ballpark's latest renovation project, the replacement of the field lighting system. That figure was helped by teams Fletcher & Walden donating back $2,000 in prize money their teams earned for their on-field performance.
A HUGE thank you to the sponsors who made this event - and this fundraiser - an unprecedented success! The tournament would have been possible without dozens of volunteers who made the weekend happen, especially tournament & fundraising organizer Whit Walden!
