Thanks! I miss you already and can't wait for next year

Hello Friends! I have a couple of updates

1) Tournament planning is well underway. The Lions are back and roaring to go! (seewhatididthere)

2) Unfortunately due to a wedding in my family, I will not be able to participate in BALLFEST this year. It breaks my heart a little, but I will no longer be coordinating BALLFEST. However, I am very confident that the tournament is in good hands, and will run very smoothly.

When I took over the organization of BALLFEST in 2013, it was my goal that BALLFEST would become a sustainable event for a long time, with or without me. We have always had incredible teams and captains to help things go well, and our partnership with the Lions over the last several years has helped to build that foundation, and I am so grateful to all of you for your support and excitement over the years. Thank you, my friends!

I can't wait to come back next year and lead Pitch Blease to a championship! You've been warned!

This page will stay active under new management. More announcements/information about that is coming soon. Registration is not too far behind.

Have an amazing summer and another amazing BALLFEST! I'll miss you all.

Love Fraser

PS I also got engaged. You haven't met her but she's a great ballplayer (among many other things)!

Dear Friends:

After much deliberation, the Lions Club and I have decided to postpone BALLFEST to 2022. Obviously this is due to the ongoing pandemic. Western Canada is so close to being ready, but at this point it doesn’t look like we’ll be able to run our tournament and host teams in our famous BALLFEST way.

I have been blown away over the last year-plus by all of the support we’ve received from teams and captains. Special thanks to everyone who completed our pre-tournament survey (over 50 of you!). I know this is disappointing, but we will see you next July for the best BALLFEST yet. I hope that wherever you are, you can find some place to play some ball this year.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Have a great summer!

Love Fraser

PS: This sucks. I miss you. :(

Hello Friends! Fraser here.

I met with the Lions Club this week to discuss options for this year. At this point we have no idea if we will be able to run BALLFEST for 2021.

If the world stays as it is right now, with cases and restrictions as they are, we will not be able to hold a tournament. Hopefully with more vaccines and continued good behaviour, things will shift over the coming months enough that we can get together.

We are interested in your thoughts and ideas! Please fill out this survey so we can get talking

PS: Fingers crossed!

PPS: Diamond 3 has shale now

Thinking of you all today. I hope everyone has an awesome weekend! Sorry we can’t be together to celebrate softball and each other as usual. We will do it up properly soon! 🥎

I miss you all! Be safe and well. ❤️

Love Fraser
