USSSA Returns to the Shore

July 13, 2016 Posted by Matt Pencek Featured Sports, Local Sports

SALISBURY, Md. – Fast pitch softball teams will participate in the USSSA Tournament for the remainder of the month.

On Wednesday, the Opening Ceremonies for the 2016 event were scaled back due to rain but that did not lessen the enthusiasm of all the teams converging on the Eastern Shore.

The age range for the month long event is 10-18. The first week features those in 10 under and 12 under groups. The participants are from the northeast and midwest regions of the United States. In addition, there is international flavor with Canadian representation.

Action begins on July 14 with the teams scheduled to play multiple games.

Facilities in both Wicomico and Worcester counties will host games in the tournaments.
