The Women’s Slo-Pitch Tournament held in Blyth this weekend had super weather for fans and players alike. Here a Blyth team member slides into second base at the same time the Clinton player snags the ball. Blyth beat Clinton, but went on to lose to Londesboro for the "A" championship. Belgrave Mite Boys finish season in third The Belgrave Blue Mite boys finished their softball season in third place with seven wins and eight losses. At the playoff tournament in Belgrave they met Wingham in the first round. The team played a strong offensive game, getting 24 hits to Wingham's four. They easily defeated the Wingham team 27-11. The second round brought them up against the second place Belmore team. Belgrave again out-hit Belmore 8-2 which included home runs from both Myron Hussey and Curtis Knight. Matthew Snow pitched the six inning game striking out 15 batters and allowing only three walks. The final score was Belgrave 11, Belmore 2. In the third round they met up with the first place Wroxeter team. Belgrave was first on the scoreboard following a single by Myron Hussey in the second inning. Matthew Snow got the only other Belgrave hit in the third inning, but with bases loaded could not get any runners home. Kyle Anderson's strong pitching, and excellent fielding by the rest of the team held the score 1-0 until the bottom of the fourth when Wroxeter got two runs following a home run and a single. Belgrave continued to leave the bases loaded in both the fifth and sixth innings, unable to even up the score. In the fifth Wroxeter got two more hits and were able to have three more runners steal home. Matthew Snow came in as relief pitcher to get the final three out. Wroxeter went on to win the “A” Championship with Wingham bringing home the “B” Championship. Coaches Peter Snow and Roe Croskill were very happy with the sportsmanlike conduct of their team and the great effort given out by all members. The team consisted of Matthew Snow, Rick Buchanan, Kyle Anderson, Myron Hussey, Jim McCracken, Justin Black, Aaron Baker, Curtis Knight, Jason Fear, Travis Campbell, Steven McBurney and premites Devin Moffat, Travis Hopper and Ken McCracken, who occasionally played up with the team. The team is now ready to get out their hockey sticks as Belgrave Minor Hockey Registration and equipment exchange will be held at the Belgrave Arena on Thursday, Sept. 3 from 7 - 9 p.m. Tigers begin playoffs The Brussels Tigers will meet the Seaforth Bears in Huron County Fastball Playoff action. Game one in the best of three series was Monday night in Seaforth. Game two is tentatively set for Friday night in Brussels at 7:30 p.m. with game three if necessary, in Brussels Sunday night. The winner of this series meets the Walton Brewer/Blyth Decor winner for the North Division Championship.

Brussels Bandits win first The Brussels Bandits Squirt soccer team won the North Perth Soccer League Championship this past weekend in Palmerston. This capped an undefeated season as they finished in first place with a record of 10 wins and one tie. In Brussels' first game, Darryl Houston scored in the first half and Nolan Krotz tallied in the second. They defeated Listowel I 2-0. Sharing the goaltending duties for the shutout were Matthew Clarkson and Darryl Houston. Next up for the Bandits was Listowel 2. Brussels scored first and never looked back winning 4-0. Kenny McCallum, Lee Dilworth, Darryl Houston and Nolan Krotz each had singles. Combining for the shutout were Matthew Clarkson, Scott McDonald and Samantha Thomas. Brussels' third game against Drayton 2 was important as the winner advanced to the final. Nolan Krotz with two, Lee Dilworth, Kenny McCallum and Darryl Houston with one each advanced the Bandits to the final with a 5-1 victory. The final against Elma I turned out to be a very entertaining game, as it featured end to end action. Elma opened the scoring midway through the first half on a shot that goalie Matthew Clarkson had no chance on. The half ended 1-0. Brussels began to press late in the second half and was rewarded with a tying goal by Lee Dilworth with five minutes remaining in the game. Then with just over a minute left Darryl Houston scored the winner as Brussels won the game 2-1. The rest of the team was comprised of: Jenna Krotz, Cassie Fischer, Crystal McLellan, Josh Nichol, Jonathan McDougall and Sean Hoegy.
