Adam Fedoruk CAN-AM Major
All-Star Tournament
An Open Invitation to all 12U Baseball Team Managers and Coaches:
On behalf of Oakville (Ontario) Little League we would like to invite you to play in the 12th Annual Adam Fedoruk Memorial CAN/AM Tournament being held the August 13th-15th, 2010.
This tournament is FREE to enter. Register for the tournament, pay your entry fee and we will return it to you upon conclusion of the tournament. Teams that register early and advance in their division/provincial/state/national tournaments will get a 100% refund of their $300 Canadian entry fee. Please register early to avoid disappointment.
The tournament, one of the premiere 12 & under baseball tournaments in Ontario, is open to all 12-year old baseball teams across Canada and the United States, regardless of national affiliation (Little League, USSSA, ECTB, Cal Ripken, OBA, etc.). Our goal is to provide the highest level of competition in a fun, friendly and family-oriented setting.
The tournament was established in 1999 as a lasting tribute to Adam Fedoruk, a young player in Oakville Little League who absolutely loved baseball. Tragically, Adam died suddenly, along with his sister and mother, in a house fire on August 17, 1998. This tournament is a celebration of all that this young player embodied characteristics typically found in the young people who play in Little League - dedication, sportsmanship, teamwork and fair play. And so, we invite you to take the field with us - play for fun, play for the love of the game, and play for Adam.
This year's tournament will involve up to 16 teams. In the past, the tournament has drawn teams from Ontario, New York and Michigan. Many teams return on an annual basis. Players must be of Little League age 12-years old or younger (born on or after May 1, 1997). For the teams coming from the United States, we think it would be a great way to end the season by participating in this wonderful memorial tournament dedicated to Adam.
The tournament is played in Oakville, Ontario. Oakville is located on the shores of Lake Ontario, 30-minutes west of downtown Toronto and just 45 minutes from the United States border crossing at Lewiston, New York.
The tournament games are played on very well maintained ball fields with grass infields, red clay pitching mounds & base paths, 200-foot outfield fences and enclosed dugouts. The tournament will include activities such as, raffle draws, food concessions and souvenir stand.
The Tournament format is as follows:
• All teams are guaranteed to play three (3) games throughout the weekend
• All games are played until a winner is determined.
• There will be Championship and Consolation games played
Tournament Champions receive a Championship trophy for their league to keep. All players in the Championship and Consolation finals receive trophies. All players playing in the tournament receive an Adam Fedoruk Memorial pin and hot dog and drink tickets after your games played on Saturday and Sunday.
Deadline for registration is Friday, July 23rd, 2010.

Oakville Little League to Host 2010 Provincial Championship
OAKVILLE, Ont., (January 7th, 2010) – Oakville Little League is pleased to announce that they will be hosting the 2010 Provincial Senior League Baseball Championships for players age 15 and 16.
“We are honoured that Little League Ontario has asked Oakville Little League to host this Provincial Championship,” said John Sweeney, President of Oakville Little League. “This tournament provides us with an opportunity to showcase the fine young athletes of Oakville and from across the Province, as well as, providing the opportunity to showcase the beautiful Town of Oakville and Oakville Little League.” Building on the success of running the 2008 Canadian Senior League Championship and the 2009 Ontario Minor A Provincial Championship, Oakville Little League is well positioned to welcome back another significant Championship to the Town of Oakville.
“I am excited about the opportunity to coach the team but also to provide our Whitecaps with an opportunity to compete in the provincials for the right to represent Ontario at the Canadian Senior League Championships this summer” said Nick Rigato, head coach of the host Oakville Whitecaps.
The Provincial Senior League Championship will be held in late July 2010. Specific dates, game times and location will be posted on our website over the next few months.
“Our objective is to make this tournament one of the best hosted tournaments in Ontario in 2010” added Sweeney, “For many of these young people, competing in a tournament of this magnitude will be the experience of a lifetime. Win or lose, we want the players to always think about the time they spent in Oakville in the summer of 2010, the fond experience and fun they had, the friendships they made, and the hospitality of Oakville.”
“This event is a significant undertaking for our League and can only be successfully with the generous support of our volunteers and the financial support of the Oakville business community” said John Mooney, Vice President of Baseball Operations for Oakville Little League. “We are currently in the planning stages and are actively looking for sponsorship to help support this event.”
If you are interested in sponsorship or volunteering to help with the organization and running of the event or would like more information about the tournament, call the Oakville Little League office at 905-827-1831 or send an email to
