We all had quite a weekend with the group! It was our third tournament weekend in a row this spring and it was nice to go to a new area of North Carolina to see how our team can play against some Charlotte teams and we can definitely say we made an impact in this tournament!
 |
| We had a 20 minute weather delay due to lightening during our second game on Saturday vs the South Charlotte Thunder. The boys were hanging out together and so we took this picture of them. |
 |
| After our games on Saturday we headed straight to dinner before checking in at our hotel. Coach Lance knows the area well, so we ended up at Hickory Tavern...all 42 of us (give or take a few)! We were able to get a room area to ourselves, which was perfect. It was nice to sit back, talk and relax! |

| Here's another shot at dinner! |
 |
| The boys got up in front of the families and rubbed their bellies just for COACH DAVE! LOVE it! |
 |
| and some of the dads thought it was pretty funny, too! |

| Champions! |
We had a great weekend together! The last three weekends we've spent at the ball park watching this team play in three different tournaments. Last week they added some practices, so they could hit off a pitching machine for the Charlotte tournament. This team has supportive families...we made it work!
Big Blue will continue to play in tournaments, but the next one has not been set yet. This week is the first week of games for West Raleigh, so Big Blue will take a short break. Although most will be playing against each other in the league, I'm sure you will see and hear the Big Blue players and families cheer each other on!
So proud of the Big Blue players and coaches! We definitely let them know who 8U Big Blue is down in Mama T's Country!
ROLL BLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
