Emotional weekend for players & organizers at Mason Close Memorial Tournament
MEDICINE HAT, AB – Baseball was a way of life for Mason Close, growing up on ball diamonds across Medicine Hat over his 21 years.
That’s why friends, family, and strangers came together over the weekend to celebrate a life cut far too short and the game that brought them all together.
The first Mason Close Memorial Slow-Pitch Tournament was held at the Moose Community Ball Complex on Saturday and Sunday, featuring 24 teams and hundreds of players joining forces.
Scott Galloway was a member of the ‘A’ tournament winning squad and said it was important for so many in the baseball community to show their support.
