BLE PNC Id Camp Cancelled

April 24, 2009

Following Baseball B.C. ‘s decision to complete the selection process for the 2009 PNC team at an earlier than normal date, the Big League Experience has made the decision to cancel their PNC Id Camp. Owner Marty Lehn commented, “Based on feedback made by various organizations throughout B.C., Baseball B.C. made the decision to complete the PNC team selection process at least six weeks earlier than in the past. This put our camp dates out of line with their process and we made the decision to cancel it and look at other opportunities during that time frame. We are currently checking our calendar to see if there might be room to offer an "Elite Player Tune Up Camp" for those serious players looking for a competitive edge prior to attending Provincial and District Team tryouts.
