Dustin Houle had a great year this past season, so good that it has landed him a spot one of the top teams in the PBL (Premier Baseball League). Dustin, 15, has joined the Langley Blaze in his grade 11 year of his young career. He had a good showing at the Okanagan Regional ID camp.
Congratulations to our SOMBA Graduate, Tyler Andrew, who has been recruited to play College Ball in Kelowna this coming year. Tyler started with us three seasons ago and has been solid as our Tiger's Catcher.
SOMBA has now expanded its international program to include national Midget AAA players.
