I would suggest Thunder Elite fall ball to any team within driving distance. Its ery well run, field crews are hard working and the competition gets better every year.

Sunday Games are on schedule. Check here or website for updates. Games will start at 9AM.

All the games were not completed due to the rain. The fields were actually holding up fairly well, but the bases, pitching rubber, etc were slippery messes...was getting too dangerous.

I'm sure Jeff is busy trying to reschedule all the games and will post winners when the tournaments are actually completed.

Thanks Tom. Thats exactly what we are trying to do. It looks like we have some gamens played during the week and the rest will be made up next Sunday. Still finalizing games times with the teams.

Overall we played 10 games yesterday. The 16u Division is complete with ROC Elite winning that division.

14u Had the Butler Sting come out of one side of the bracket and we still need semi final game between Pitt Power and Canfield Crush to be made up. looks like we will play these games Sunday afternoon.

12u still has 4 games to be played. looking at Sunday morning/afternoon

10u is looking to get completed during the week. Looking at this Tuesday

John,

I know I have been quick to get the results up after each week, however I am playing middle man on makeup games right now.

THANKS to the 25 teams for participating in our Fall Ball League! It's been great getting to know all the teams/coaches/families. I look forward to seeing all of you again soon.

Overall, I have received very positive remarks about Thunder Elite's Fall Ball League. I am very happy to say that only 4 games were not played of a possible 146. These 4 games were due to player/team unavailability NOT weather. I believe all coaches can attest to the fact that I worked extremely hard to accomodate any scheduling requests and made sure games were played.

THANKS to BOB and our Field Crew - they are the simply the BEST!!!
We hope the Fall Ball Champs enjoy their t-shirts.

If you have any questions/comments about Fall Ball - please PM/email me. I am always willing to work hard to make this the best experience for participating teams.

Thunder Elite President

Don,
Thanks alot. Our girls really work hard and they are a fun group to coach. They were both very hard fought, tight games today by all teams. I did want to say thanks again to a class organization, Thunder Elite. Jeff and his crew did a phoenomenal job all fall and I am highly recommending this league to a few other teams in our organization. The competition and quality of play was great.

We plan on trying to make one of your June tournaments. I definitely would like to get together this winter for your team. We are very evenly matched and your girls/group of coaches are great. I will be in contact over the next few weeks.
