2010 ISC World tournament qualifiers 2010-01-12 The 2010 ISC World tournament will be held in Midland Michigan, August 14-21 and the ISC has released the list of tournaments available to teams to qualify. The list is here and also indicates the berths that have already been awarded. And it is important to remember that this year there will be no ISC II (Intermediate) tournament as the ISC has combined the two tournaments together. |

A little nostalgia 2010-01-12 Not being from the area, my knowledge of local fastball does not go back as far as some. This video about the 1970 London TV Cable team and their championship run for the Nationals is very interesting and maybe a few of you will remember back to those days, watching or maybe even playing against some of the names mentioned. Enjoy. Found at the Eastern Ontario Fastball Blog |

A new year and a tournament 2010-01-02 Happy new year to all. As it is with all previous years, the beginning of the new year also brings the beginning of a new ball season. Talk turns to getting together and finding somewhere to throw a ball around and to how the new season will go. And with January also comes the AAU Men's International Fastpitch Tournament. From January 21 to 24 at the Disney's Wide World of Sports complex, teams from all over with meet up in Florida to compete in this warm-weather tournament. The list of teams competing this year and the schedule can be seen here. I see a couple familiar team names (Outlaws, Force, Fury) and wish them the best of luck in the tournament. |

2009 all stars 2009-10-05 The KFL is proud to once again, name its all-star lineup. Players are chosen by the Executive based on feedback from every coach in the league, the mvp voting for each game and the Executive's own opinion. Two players have been chosen to represent their team which would give each division a roster of 14 players. This year, as in the past, these teams will be "on paper" only. In the future, the goal is to have an all-star game, or a challenge game versus another league, but for now, we would like to announce our all-stars and let them have the recognition they deserve. Thank you.

The Wilfrid Laurier University (WLU) women's fastpitch team is hosting the
2nd ever Intercollegiate Womens Fastpitch Championships this weekend at
Peter Hallman Ball Yard.
Womens fastpitch is yet to be considered a varsity sport and does not
receive any school funding (all costs are from the players pockets). It
promises to be an entertaining weekend of ball however, as WLU looks to
improve on last years silver medal.
The tournament will feature nine teams all competing for the title of 2009
Canadian Champions. This list includes the defending champions from
University of Saskatchewan, University of Ottawa, McMaster University, St.
Claire College, University of Calgary, Durham College, University of
Regina, University of Western Ontario (UWO), and the defending silver
medalists and host, Wilfrid Laurier University.
Games will start Saturday morning and the gold medal game will be Monday
at 1:30pm. WLU will be playing arch-rival UWO in what could be the game of
the tournament on Saturday morning at 10:45am followed by a match with St.
Claire Colllege at 12:30pm and then finish round robin play vs University
of Calgary on Sunday at 10:45am. The playoff round will commence
immediately after.

In 2007 the Kings finished ninth and went on to win the B side
championship. Every team that wins the B side is showing notice to the
league that in the next few years, they plan on making a run for the
championship. Thats exactly what they did.
After finishing second in the Black division, tied for first with the
Smoke in points but having fewer wins, the Kings blazed a trail threw the
playoffs.
The first round saw them take on and defeat the lower-ranked but
highly-feared Classics, who were the defending champions. It took all three
games in the best-of-three series but they managed a 2-1 victory to finish
the series.
The semi-finals didn't get any easier as the had to face the 2008
finalists Bell Cartage but the Kings pitching and defense took over as Bell
did not create a single run in the two game series. Wins of 1-0 and 4-0 put
them in the finals.
And this is where it gets fun. The Kings dropped the first two games of
the best-of-five series against the Diamond Jaxx before storming back to
win the next three and the title.
Congratulations Kings.
