Clearwater has won the right to host the 2013 U16 and U12Boys Provincial Softball Championships. The events will be held July 4 to July 7.
During the 2012 season Clearwater Minor Ball hosted two provincial championships. The event was a great success and Clearwater volunteers had a huge part in making that success. The visiting teams were amazed at the amount of community contribution.
This was the first time for most visitors to Clearwater and they were impressed with the beauty of our area. Clearwater’s U18 team won gold and the U14 team won silver.
Over the years, teams from Clearwater Minor Ball have travelled all over B.C., Alberta and Saskatchewan and have brought home numerous championship medals. One of the questions we have been asked during those travels has been, “Where is Clearwater?”
Clearwater Minor Ball and District of Clearwater have helped answer that question.
In September, 2012, a bid was submitted for the 2013 Provincial Championships by Clearwater Minor Ball and the District of Clearwater’s sports coordinator, Melody Romeo. The contenders for the event were Clearwater, Whalley and Richmond. Clearwater successfully won the bid.
If you would like to volunteer for help make this event another success, please contact Melody Romeo at 250-674-8009 or sports@docbc.ca.
