The North Dufferin Baseball League All-Star day will get underway this weekend with teams from the Junior and Senior Divisions taking part in the annual games that showcase the best talent from the League.
The games will take place at the New Lowell Recreation Park with the Clearvew Orioles as first time hosts for this event.
Nine innings are scheduled for the Senior game between the East Division All-Stars and the West Division All-Stars.
The Divisions are based on historical divisions within the League.
Twenty players and three coaches will make up the roster for each team with Vance White of the Ivy Leafs and Kyle Warren of the Clearview Orioles coaching the Senior West Division.
Eric Cirone of the Bolton Brewers and Kevin Buck from the Orangeville Giants will be on the bench as coaches with the Senior East Division.
The Senior game is scheduled to get underway at 1:00 pm.
The Junor All-Star teams will play a seven inning game with a 14 man roster and three coaches.
Each Junior club sends four players with two on each All-Star team which results in teammates pitted against each other during the game.
This format has proved very exciting in previous All-Star contests.
The Junior game will get underway at 4:00 p.m.
The North Dufferin Baseball League All-Star day will take place in New Lowell on Saturday, July 7.
