Due to high demand, one more team has been added to the Herts Futures Tournament lineup this Saturday, 26 September 2009.
There will now be a third Herts team which will be added to the Minors Division, where four teams will now play in a double-elimination format used at the 2009 World Baseball Classic and at the British National Baseball Championships (NBL and AAA).
This means that the number of teams in this year’s event will be ten, two more than last year.
The following is the updated schedule and tournament format.
