Three of the best baseball teams from Saipan are on the verge of competing with international opponents on the neighboring island of Tinian, but before the Junior, Senior, and Big Leaguers don the CNMI uniforms and take the ferry across the channel, their parents, coaches, and coordinators will meet to discuss strategy.
According to Saipan Little League Baseball Association president Joe Salas, the organization’s top officials are calling for all three league commissioners to meet at the Gilbert C. Ada Gymnasium tomorrow morning to make sure that everyone is on the same page.
“We want to have full coordination between everyone to make sure that the transportation, accommodations, and water are all set, and to make sure that we can have a smooth transition to Tinian,” said Salas.
Salas and District Administrator James Ada will be on hand to disseminate information regarding Tinian’s international staging of the Asia-Pacific Regional Tournament, and to answer any questions about next week’s trip.
The hour-long meeting will start promptly at 9am and everyone is reminded to be on time as there is a lot of information to pass along and league officials are on a tight schedule. One of the items on the list to be discussed is the packing list that each team manager will receive, as well as ensuring that the players have the least amount of distractions on their road to the World Series.
