By Jo-Ann McDonald Call 887-6570 PEOPLE AROUNDWALTON Ladies don costumes for games The Walton Brewers travelled to Osheken to participate in the Ontario Challenge Cup. The tournament invites the winners in various leagues across Ontario to participate. There were 14 teams participating. The Brewers were the 2011 Huron County Champs. They played Friday evening against Sweaburg Crush and lost in a good game 6-3. They played Saturday afternoon against the Wyevale Tribe and had an excellent game that went into extra innings before giving up the two runs for the 5-3 loss. The team said it was a good tournament with some outstanding teams participating. The Brussels Ladies slo-pitch year-end tournament was held on Saturday with the Bookies team in charge of the day. Teams played on both Brussels diamonds, Walton and Ethel in the morning. Play continued on the Brussels diamonds for the rest of the day. The rain in the morning made all the diamonds a bit messy, but most teams played on despite the rain. Costumes and dressing up are part of the day and there were some very interesting outfits. Teams were dressed as dominoes, Hawaiian girls, beer cans, Mennonites, tight and brights and retro 70s to name a few. The Walton Wonders played their best ball of the year winning three games in the “A” division until losing in the final to the “A” winners, the Twisted Sisters. The “B” champs for the day were the Monkton team – Lavern’s Ladies who defeated the Ethel Diehards and Cougars in the final. Congrats to all teams and only eight months until ball season again. Have a good winter everyone.
