Legends Classic Moves Back to Kitchener
After 4 very successful years in the beautiful Woodstock and District Community Complex, theLegends Classic is moving east. The Woodstock organizing committee has had some challenges since last years event and rather than fold another major stop on many club teams tournament schedule it was decided to take advantage of the strong volunteer base in Kitchener to keep the Legends alive. The game owes a debt of gratitude to legendary players Brian Paton and Chuck Hendricks, theirspouses Suzy and Pat, and tournament driving force Brad Janssen and his wife Margaret, for bring fastball back to a city that owned the Ontario game for many years in the 70’s 80’s and early 90’s.
After a 4 year hiatus the Peter Hallman Legends Classic will returns to Kitchener May 30 to June 1 at Peter Hallman Ball Yard. This tournament is the oldest major men’s club event in Canada and along with host team the Kitchener Rivershark Twins, will celebrate its 41st anniversary this year.

A-1 Bombers Sign Pitcher Marty Grant
Monday, May 5th, 2008The Casa Trejo A-1 Bombers are very pleased to announce the signing of pitcher Marty Grant of New Zealand for the 2008 season. Grant is a long-time and highly respected member of the New Zealand National team and played this past season in the New Zealand club circuit. While unable to compete in 2004 due to an injury, Marty has been a star pitcher for New Zealand during their ISF Gold Medal run over the last several competitions and was a key pitcher for the Decatur Pride in the ISC a few years ago, twice being named All-World.
“We’ve been in discussions with Marty for a few weeks now and with his permission, we added him to our roster prior to May 1st, to enable this opportunity. Marty Grant has extensive International experience and is a world-class pitcher, and we’re obviously very excited to add his talent and leadership to our club.â€
The Bomber’s ownership, staff and players welcome Marty and look forward to his contribution in 2008.
