The association is also hoping to buy new sweaters for their players this year. Following the tourney was a roast pork dinner at the club, which was included in the $100 ticket price. Al Pixley, president of the association, said that they were hoping to raise $6,000 this year and that he hopes to get more local sponsors out this year. “This is really all about supporting the kids in the community, building their confidence, getting them active and healthy and building sportsmanship and team work. “ Anyone interested in sponsoring the association can email Al Pixley at This email address is being protected from spambots.
