St. Jude Tournament

Established in 2016, the Tournament has raised over $125,000 for St. Jude Children' Foundation.

A special thanks to the following individuals for their invaluable contributions:
Russ from Stitches who provided all players with uniform hats and shirts.
Frank Inzirillo from Chairman Social Corp who donated his time and talent to creating our registration forms.
Richie Coy and Mario Harris for coordinating and setting up the 60's tournament in September.
Chuck Meyers and Doug for umpiring for no fee.

Created and rganized by Vinnie Troiano, who played in LISSA for many years, assisted by several other LISSA and NYSSA players . 
Players are assigned to teams that are scheduled to play at least two games and the more you win, the more you play. 
But it's not really about winning. 
It's about participating in a tournament that helps raise money to help sick children get well. 
Playing the game we all love and the camaraderie with all the other players is just icing on the cake. 

Please ask your manager for the application to play and if you can't play, please donate. 
It's a great feeling knowing that we're doing a good thing for children that need as much help as they can get.
