The Rotary and other leagues were supposed to be held early last month but due to CNMI’s hosting of the 2008 Oceania Championship and the Asia-Pacific Regional Little League Baseball Tournament, the BANMI had to hold them.
Now that everything is done, Rangamar said he thinks they can start with BANMI sanctioned leagues.
The Rotary which will now have two age group divisions—Under 18 and Under 14 is scheduled open this month, Rangamar said.
The Rotary Club caging usually have 18-and-under players in the court.
League coordinator, Abner Venus has said the BANMI has decided to add another age group to give younger teenagers the chance to participate in the league.
The Division 1 consists of players 12 to 14 years and the Division 2 consists of youths 15 to 18.
The managers of 10 teams have already expressed interest to join this year’s league. In the previous leagues, he said 14 teams usually joined.
The league is still open to those who are interested to join. They can submit to BANMI all necessary documents like birth certificate or proof of age, waiver, forms and $200 entrance fee.
Among the teams that joined last year were Sonics, Sixers and the defending champion, Junior Nationals.
